Access code installation help needed.

[Bruce Caulley]

Morning all,

We have just purchased 5 axis true solid verify, but where do I enter the codes? I have a .doc file as follows:

 

code:

---

 Access codes for Verify 5 axis

 

Access code file name is verify5x.acc

 

Serial # Access Code

-------- -----------

 

***** ************

***** ************

 

 

---

I spoke to the reseller and he thought that it would prompt me the first time I tried to use it, but it didn't. Any ideas?

In programs, go to hasp x, click "update code" and point to a .doc file containing codes.

That does for me when upgrading...

Bruce,

I just tried it here and I get a warning "Acess code required for 4 and 5 axis toolpaths in truesolid".

[Thad]

Bruce,

 

Look for a file called verify5x.acc and open it with a text editor. You should then be able to copy your serial/code into the .acc file (it should be obvious where) and save it.

By the way Bruce what are the serial numbers and Access code? you seemed to have crossed them out for all to see

[Bruce Caulley]

Mark, did that and it picked up our solids upgrade, but not the 5axverify.

 

Thad, there is no file by that name on my PC

 

David, All crack copies have *'s for serial numbers

[?Mark]

Bruce

Are those two update codes for the same hasp serial number?

Just a thought...

[Bruce Caulley]

I recieved via email 3 different files 2 files with a .Hcode extension and one doc file as described above. When I ran the .Hcode file for the relevant SIM I got the message "Sim succesfully updated" or something similar. That gave us solids but not verify5x. If I run haspX Mill 3, solids and 5 axis all show. We we "grandfathered" into MCX 5 axis because we had it in V9, but we never had the 5 axis truesolid verify. Maybe I need to do a fresh install?

[Thad]

Bruce,

 

I don't know anything about verify5x, but there should be a file called verify5x.acc, just like your document file says. Maybe you have to install something first?

 

Is that a 3rd party app?

 

Anyway, I just updated our Moldplus codes last Friday by opening moldplus.acc and pasting the new code in.

Sorry can't help you here.

If Thad's suggestion doesn't work, sobebody else's will...

Just keep the thread up top

Bruce,

I have the truesolids verify add-on

My dealer suipplied me with a 12 digit number

in a text file named verify5x.acc

If I put a copy of that file in my

C:mcamx folder, multiaxis solids verify works.

There is no need to install additional software.

 

I think ( never tried it) you can also put all three 12 digit numbers in the same file, each set on a single line. That way the same acc file will support all 3 of your sims.

I guess that you should create a file called verify5x.acc on your MC folder, and then put the codes inside it.

 

Try to create a new .txt file with the right-click button, "NEW" -> "Text Document", and name it "verify5x.txt". After that, rename it with .acc extension, open in an editor and put the codes there on the first line.

 

Open MC and test it.

Cimco Edit is best for this.

Just open the txt file, hit Save As and name it

"verify 5x.acc"

Cimco will automatically give it the acc file extension.

[Thad]

Based on gcode's info, I would create a new file in notepad and put your numbers in it. After saving it, rename it from .txt to .acc. Put it in the root MCX directory and see what happens.

 

EDIT: Too late.

Just an FYI guys. When you do a file save as in notpad if you change the file type from TXT files to all files you can give it whatever extension you want & notepad wont append it with the .txt.

[Watcher]

What about codes for more than one SIM?

What does is the correct way? Place all of them in only one line or each code needs a line within the file?

G, what does your verify5x.acc look like?

a 12 digit number on a single line, no spaces

 

its location should be

C:mcamxverify5x.acc

[gcode]

for multiple sims in the same file try this format

 

123321123321 ; sim# 12345

456654456654 ; sim# 45678

789987789987 ; sim# 78912

 

this is the format my moldplus/supertrim acc file uses

 

my single sim verify file just has the 12 digit

number and nothing else

 

123321123321

[gcode]

Bruce, if this isn't working for you, try dropping them in your V9 folder. Maybe they gave you V9 codes by mistake????

[Bruce Caulley]

WOOHOO!! That did it G

Bruce,

My X 5axis code is just a 12 digit number as GCode said.

I had the same aggro here last July trying to get it to work.

Regards,

Doug

[Bruce Caulley]

Ok, everything is working fine. I can't believe with the work we do that we haven't bought solids and verify5x before now

 

 

Thanks all
