spc software

[JJordan]

About six months ago we purchased some spc software. But the old quality manager looking for some glory from the upper managment didn't get any help from the sofware company. Now he is gone and I'm stuck with making it work. I have had no experience with this type of software. The software company said I needed to have my cmm output as a pure text file. They said that RTF files would not work. I need to know how to get the file out put of the cmm to just text.file instead of RTF. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

This is how I do it. You can send the data directly to where ever you want it. We have it go directly into the SPC software. If you wanted or needed you could just send it out to .txt file the same way. The COM number will be specific to the machine you are on and which one is available, you need to find that out its not automatic.

If you use file export generic it will produce a txt file all values will be coma seperated

What spc software are you using?

[JJordan]

I am using synergy 2000 by zontec

[JJordan]

I fyou use file export generic can you input into your program or do you have to individually do it each time?

Is this SPC package windows based. If so, you can do what Hammer said. You may also be able to export you data to datapage and copy it into your SPC package just as it. We used to use Minitab and this is what I did. If it is windows based you can copy and paste it.
