PCDIMIS to Datapage?

**Matthew D. Hoedeman** · 06-28-2006, 09:59 AM

There is a file in your Pcdmis directory called XSTATS11.TMP. When this file gets 'bad' data in it, and you try to send the data to Datapage, it will send the 'good' data, but not the 'bad' data (usually this is a bad path name in the file). To clear the error, simply delete this file. Pcdmis will make it again the next time around, without the error (unless you have the path name wrong in the program).

pc-dmis to data page

Like matthew said, open the stats11.tmp file using note pad.
and see what is there.

You will see the file path it is trying to follow in the top line.

If the information there is not needed just delete stats11.
A new file will be made on next run.

Does this look right? For some reason it doesn't to me.

STATS/ON,DATAPAGE,$
DIRECTORY=C:\1_SPC,$
DIRECTORY=,$
READ=10,WRITE=20,MEMPAGES=64,DIMENSION NAME,CONTROLCALC OFF,$
STATS/END

as long as you have created a datapage database in the C:\1_SPC directory it should be correct. You should be able to open the database with Datapage.

It is likely you will continue to have this problem (no it is not your fault). If you get sick of it put this code at the beginning of any program you save stats with

Code:

V1 =FILE/EXISTS,C:\PCDMISW\Xstats11.tmp
IF/V1==1
FILE/DELETE,C:\PCDMISW\Xstats11.tmp
END_IF/

Obviously you'll need to edit the path to wherever you have installed PCDMIS.

It will delete the file for you every time you execute. I do have not deployed this with looping so I don't know what to tell you if you loop.

Its all good Buck, glad I could help. When it comes to datapage, one on one is the only way, what it take 3 minutes?

Understanding PCDIMIS

I am a first time user and have very limited understanding of how PCDIMIS works. Can someone explain what this is or where I can go to get true understanding? I have experience in using COSMOS, but as you know, CNC software applied to CMM operations, allows you to perform measurements automatically. Need Help.
