Offline training / no probe files

Hi -

Is there a way to create a "dummy Prb" or a Prb(1), etc.. offline in order to practice program a model I brought in. I do not have access (yet) to an online machine so no probe files. Looking for something to get started

New to PC-DMIS, but 30+ years with other software(s).

Thanks!

Insert / Hardware Definition / Probe - Name the probe, build components, and add angles etc....Same offline as online, just offline you don't have any qualification results.

When starting a NEW file, the first prompt is to create/select a probe build.
If you close out of the screen and need to get back in, put your cursor on a LOADPROBE statement and press 'F9' or you can use Ctrl+Alt+P to open the LOADPROBE statement above your cursor location.
If you're just practicing anything will do, but I recommend using a thumb drive to copy your .prb files from a live workstation to import into your offline seat. Then you will be working with the probing you have available.

Thanks. I will see if i can get someone to send me a few basic setup .prb files to pick through, as I have no "live" machine with PC DMIS yet. I've done similar with Calypso and importing/exporting .pcf files from machine to machine

Or copy all your probe files (.PRB) over from your CMM and viola!
