You can save your work when such a machine error occurs. It's not 100% foolproof, but you can.
When the error comes up for whatever that requires you to shut down pc-dmis it gives you two options "OK" and "Shutdown" correct? If you click "OK" it pops back up immediately right? Well, not quite - at least not as far as the computer is concerned. If you use your left hand to hold the ctrl key and hit s repeatedly and use your right hand to click on "OK", you can get it to save. You have to go through the error window several times sometimes, but it will save (sometimes). After you think it has saved click on "shutdown". Hopefully it worked.
Give it a try. Open a program, insert a move point at the end, don't save it, hit the e-stop. You'll get the error message. Do the above steps, shutdown PC-DMIS, restart it, open your program and see if the move point is there.
BTW, I 100% agree that we should be able to use PC-DMIS "offline" on the computer connected to the CMM with the controller turned off.
Taking the dongle from one computer to another - I can kinda see that, but I also understand why they don't want you doing that.
So the only way I can see this being an issue is if I had two CMM's and only one liscence, then it may do some good but otherwise,and even then I would think that there are a whole other set of headaches that you have to go through just to make it run initially.
