PC DMIS Crash all the time?

Wolfram
We just purchased a Romer Arm 7525 and I've been feeling my way in the dark for the past couple of days. I haven't had the training yet, next class is full and won't be another until December?!?... Anyhow, that's a different issue.

I've had success pulling in CAD's, running alignments(starting to wrap my head around it, but I think a lot has been luck), but the real problem I'm running into is PC DMIS crashing several times a day. Can it sense I don't know what I'm doing? This thing may be smarter than I thought...

Situations where it crashes: manual alignment to part without CAD (3 times in a row, measured plane, taking hits on circle, on third hit it crashed)
Many other times, don't know enough about what I did to lead to the crash...

Anybody experience this? Suggestions?

  • That's just silly.

    Is not! That's how programs get corrupted, by using undo too often on top of copy/paste and then missing something or inadvertently deleting something. Maybe not with the newer versions but 4.3 certainly don't like it. OK, I admit the safety feature was for lack of better words but I don't know how else to describe it just kicking you right out but that's what it does. I'd say 99% of the time I'll go back into someone's program and find an unfinished command where they tried to copy something and didn't get everything they needed. I tell them to quit trying to save time by copying commands from other programs and just program normally.

    If we have time to fix it and do it over then we have time to do it right the first time.
