File Management

I'm about to overhaul the way we store our PC-DMIS files and was wondering what affect this is going to have on my already posted programs...

The PC-DMIS files will be moved to new folders on the PC. Since the path has been changed, will PC-DMIS still be able to access the program file when an NC probing program is run on my machine?

Any tips or suggestions? I'm hoping this will be a fairly smooth transition...

  • Hi Shumila,

    PC-DMIS CMM has an operate mode that locks users out from being able to edit the program. PC-DMIS NC does not have a similar function because the usage is different. The PC-DMIS NC computer can be located away from the machine where the operator cannot have access to it. There is no way for PC-DMIS NC to lock users out of being able to edit the macros on the machine tool. Some customers have the machine tool operator download their macros (measuring and cutting) for each run so as to ensure programs are not tampered with.
