I am trying to set up barcode scanners on our CMMs so that when the operator puts a part on the fixture, they will scan the part and it will automatically open the proper program. If this kind of thing possible? I have seen some people using scanners to add data via comments, but is it feasible to scan a part and have it open the corresponding program?
...write your own handler, set the barcode reader to "keyboard mode" (it sends the value of the barcode as text) your app takes that value and opens the partprogram in PC-DMIS.
