Sim not found??

[Mcam Nut]

My nethaspx can see the sim, however x4 and x5 wont load, says sim not found. It worked fine until this morning, now I cant open mastercam.

[Patrick Chelli]

on the lab computers is Nhaspx.exe set to Nethasp and Mode: Network? and on the Server Sim Type: Nethasp Mode: Local?

Shawn,

have you tried installing the latest X5 hasp software on your server.

We're still running an old version ( X3 or 4 ??) with no trouble, but you've been fighting with your net hasp since day one.

At this point its all I can think of to try

[Patrick Chelli]

If none of the above has worked. Try going into your nethasp.ini files in the McamX folder. Look for NH_server_adder take out the ;; in fron of that and place your server IP address beside the = sign and save the file example:

 

 

You might have done this already but just making sure.

 

NH_SERVER_ADDR = 2.266.95.556

I restarted all computers with mcam installed, and it works now. there must of been a licence assigned to a computer without mastercam running. Is this possible?

A license can hang, using the nhaspx.exe and active licenses, can show you if there is an active license. If so using the License Manager software to stop and start the service, will release the hung license. Better than rebooting the server.

I though it gave another error for that something like "you have exceeded your number if licences" then shuts down.

 

So in that case what Jparis said works great.

We had a very weird occurrence yesterday with our net hasp.

We've got 4 Level 3 Mill seats and 3 Multi axis.

All 4 L3 seats were in use and the boss tried to launch

a a copy on his machine.

It launched but was very glitchy and locked up.

Had it run, it would have been a 5th seat.

Not recognizing the problem we gave up on my bosses computer.

I went back to my machine which still had a X5 open.

As soon as I clicked on the X5 window I got an alarm.

"Nethasp found but SIM is not connected to server."

3 seats of L3 would run OK, but the 4th would not run.

I rebooted the boss's machine, my machine and restarted the

nethasp server, but it didn't fix the problem.

We could run 3 of 4 seats on any combination of our 4 workstations

but the 4th would not run on any workstation.

We gave up and ran the 4th L3 seat on a hardware hasp for a couple of hours

then tired the nethasp again.. and everything was OK.

I thought it pretty strange that the nethasp

reported no sim, but would allow 3 or four licenses to run

We had this problem too.

 

Be shure that cimco editor are closed down, then you have your sim free to use again.
