Hello All!
I recently purchased a second hand Brown and Sharpe Global Performance 5-5-5 (Silver Edition) for our machine shop. The system was barely used, and looks to be pristine condition. Unfortunately, due to policy, the seller could not provide me with the original PC, however, they were able to give me the installation CDs as well as the Machine Files Backup CD. After advising Hexagon of the transfer of ownership, they were able to release the node lock on the license and I was able to install PC-DMIS on a laptop temporarily. My goal is to make sure the machine functions as best as possible before I spend additional resources on a current version of DMIS, training, etc.
I would like to probe (no puns) the forums for some advice on how to get PC-DMIS to communicate with the machine since after installation, I get Error in Connect=0. The machine files have a doc in them giving me the default controller IP address as 100.0.0.1 but when I enter this in Machine Interface Setup (leaving port at 0) hit apply and ok, nothing happens. The machine came with HH-C-V2.0 interface and the power LED is lit green, HP Interface lit green, STOP lit red and damped lit amber. Rest of the LEDs are off.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
ih
