ISO 2768 provides general tolerances for linear and angular dimensions that are not specified on technical drawings. To create a new test plan using the ISO 2768 tolerance classes, the selection fields are available on the “General tolerances” tab.
These specified tolerances can be used for the following measured quantities (K2009).![]() |

Important Once a dataset with ISO tolerances has been created and the measured quantity has been defined, the defined tolerance class is used for the selected measured quantity of the characteristic. It is not possible to subsequently change the measured quantity or tolerance class. The configured ISO tolerances are stored in the dataset in an encrypted form. Therefore, the selected tolerance class cannot be viewed. |
Here is an example using length and straightness.

A dataset has been created using ISO 2768 tolerances 'm' and 'H'. It contains two characteristics. "Test 1" with defined "Distance" for the measured quantity and "Test 2" with defined "Straightness" for the measured quantity.
The limits and allowance fields are automatically updated according to the configured ISO 2768 tolerance class when the "Nominal value" is entered. In order to update the "Nominal value", the limits and allowance fields must first be cleared.
