Everyone on nethasp, any delay or lag issues?

[Chris Rizzo]

Doing a bit of research here. At the college I teach at, when you right click in the ops manager there is an approximate 5-7 second delay until the menu comes up. Occasionally the delay is 10-15 seconds, and mastercam will white-screen. If I run locally from a sim, there is no delay.

 

I've been working with cnc and IT trying to solve this and tried several different things to no avail. I'm at the stage of looking at our internal network speed and any latency (cnc's recommended course).

 

Those of you on nethasps, are you experiencing any similar issues or delay?

[Josh Kinney -Elite Engineering]

No delay. I just have a problem where the Lathe license isn't released.

 

Nethasp (Alladin) leaves A LOT to be desired. You have no control at all over the licenses. CNC should dump Alladin and get a real license software that we can control things like timeout due to inactivity...

 

Just sayin.

We discussed some issues that cause lag here, http://www.emasterca...topic=74814&hl=

[gcode]

I ran into this exact problem on my home workstation running Windows 8 and a USB hasp

I fought with it for 6 months before throwing in the towel and going back to Windows 7

We have 5 workstation here at work running on a nethasp with no issues.

In your case the first thing I would look at is network firewall rules.

In MC7 I noticed this right away, although nowhere near 10 seconds. Maybe an extra second or two at most. Our network is pretty solid for the most part.

Good info. Thanks fellas.

 

Yes, X6 had near zero latency.

 

Just to add some humor:

 

Imagine a classroom with 20 level 1 users.

 

Me: "Ok everyone do exactly like it do. We are going to rename the .nc file. Everyone right click in the white area of the Operations Manager"....

 

Student:

 

Nothing happens.

Did I click it? Better right click it again.

Still nothing.

Better right click it again.

Still nothing.

Ok now I'm gonna right click it like 5 times rapid-fire.

Still nothing.

Hey what the hells this menu? (toolbar selection).

Dammit I'm gonna right click 10 times machine-gun style, maybe in a few other areas of the screen too.

 

White screen............

 

HEY CHRIS MY MASTERCAM CRASHED! (and I didn't save any of my work)

 

 

kill me.

Try this for some humor:

 

Imagine a classroom boss, level 1 users.

 

Me: "Ok everyone boss do exactly like it do. We are going to rename the .nc file. Everyone Boss right click in the white area of the Operations Manager"....

 

Student Boss:

 

Nothing happens.

Did I click it? Better right click it again.

Still nothing.

Better right click it again.

Still nothing.

Ok now I'm gonna right click it like 5 times rapid-fire.

Still nothing.

HEY CHRIS OSCAR MY MASTERCAM CRASHED! (and I didn't save any of my work)

Oh, and by the way when you were at lunch I went over to your computer to see if that would work and I crashed that too. (now two license are locked up)

 

 

kill me!
