The company is looking at upgrades for the CMM. We are obtaining a white light sensor and in the process made a push for upgrading the PC Hardware and Software.
We are outdated with Windows XP 32-bit and we run PC-DMIS 2011 MR1 32-Bit with an Optiv 2z763.
Hexagon has informed us that they recommend using the 32-bit version of PC-Dmis with the Vision systems because that is what they are optimized for.
Using CAD really bogs down the system as we can only utilize 3GB of RAM with 32-bit Operating System. We can run Windows 7 64-bit and still run PC-DMIS 32-bit but I am not sure if this will still give me what I want for performance.
I would really like to know the Pros and Cons of this whole situation.
FWIW, I'm running 2015.0 Release 64-bit (Vision) with an CMM-V (CMM). Had to jump through some (flaming) hoops though.
I assume it all boils down to what frame grabber card you are using and the drivers for it.
