They're offering a bunch of free classes also! I already enrolled in a few

A very positive thing from Hexagon. (surprisingly)
Though I already have an OFFline license, if I read it correctly, I might be able to try out 2020 for a while. (Boss stopped our SMA last October out of frustration with our Vision problems with our Optiv)
Again....nice gesture Hexagon.

I downloaded this and I have no probe files Please help.

I downloaded this and I have no probe files Please help.

Did you have an existing copy of PcDmis installed and/or did you install a different version? If you installed a different version hunt down your old probe files and copy them in your new version install. Or point your new install directory to your old probe directory.

What e-mail? You do not need an e-mail invitation to take advantage of this. Check out the banner in this forum.

or... are you saying you completed the form and did not get a reply? There is nothing wrong with trying again, maybe the system was overwhelmed, not really sure.

Well I got MY 'free' 2020 OFFline started. It took a few tries - and....the build working for me was Pcdmis2020_R1_15.1.214.0_x64
not Pcdmis2020_R1_15.1.270.0_x64. Am sure everyone's setup may vary in success
Up to now, I got it opened, and created a new program and was able to import CAD from another 2018 R2 program. So far....so good.
Not sure why the 270 build wouldn't run (installed OK, but started license barking after that)
My 2018 R2 OFFline install is licensed via HASP, so that didn't affect anything.
Good luck all....and may:

I've been able to get every build I've tried from 2016 to 2020 so far. Usually just an issue with PC-DMIS pulling in licensing from an old version.

i installed it for the first time on my system and there are no probe files

Installing this free seat won't transfer your probe files or any other settings. You have to set that up.

Find the probe files that you use for your normal programming seat. Make a copy of the folder that contains them. Paste a copy of that folder onto your new computer where you're installing the free seat.

Install your free seat on new computer.

Once seat is installed, open PC DMIS, go to main screen with no programs open, and edit the search path for probe so the software knows where to look for probe file information.

The issue is my company doesn't allow transfer of any data from company's system to personal one
is there any place from where i can download it.

[Don Ruggieri]

Do you mean there are no components for you to build new probe files?

or do you mean there are no existing PRB files? These you have to build yourself, or copy from another system where you already built them.

[jigars]

There are to components to build probe...
any idea from where i can download these?
can't transfer from my office system due to permission issues.
