New to Portable

Umpy31337
Hello everyone!

I am new to the forums. I have 5+ years programming experience with PC-DMIS CMM. The company I work for recently bought a used Faro Arm with Cam2 Q. The laptop with the Cam2 Q software befell an unfortunate fate and because of licensing terms we needed to purchase new software. I was able to talk my boss into getting PC-DMIS Portable with the new laptop after informing him of the drawbacks and dislikes i have found with the Cam2 software. We are currently waiting for the laptop to be delivered and my question is how close to the CMM version is the Portable version? Do any of you think I will encounter a major learning curve or problem? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, Thank You!

  • You will also find that you will probably start using something that is called the quick start menu in pcdmis. Its pretty nice to lock into a part quick. Also the status window becomes useful because after the minimum amount of points for cir/plns/cyl you will start to see form error. That is nice because to can see if you took a bad hit or not. There are some quirks with the portable that you normally wouldn't see in the conventional world. Either way depending on what you are trying to accomplish with the arm I actually don't mind using them. They can get a lot don't fast if you know what you are doing.
