Reload Probe DAT File

We are running PC-DMIS CAD++ Version 2016.0 (Release) x64 Build# 1179 (Service Pack 10)

The computer where our CMM software was corrupted and we lost everything on it. Reloaded everything, including PC-DMIS.

When we start PC-DMIS it does not have any probe information, no probe changer, nothing in any drop down menus, nothing.

The search path for the probe directory is “C:\Program Files\Hexagon\PC-DMIS 2016.0 64-bit\” and the actual probe.dat path is "C:\Program Files\Hexagon\PC-DMIS 2016.0 64-bit\PROBE.DAT", which is correct. We don’t have a usrprobe.dat file.

The probe.dat file is 518 KB and appears to have all the standard probe build information required.

How do we correct this?

Thank You

If this is a 100% fresh install due to FUBAR computer, then EVERYTHING has to be redone from scratch. You have to setup the changer, you have to build each and every probe file you used, all the way down the line. An install of Pcdmis doesn't have ANY info on what you used, and every probe file is unique to every user, Pcdmis doesn't have 'default' probe builds of any kind, just the pieces parts used to build probe files.
