When you install the net hasp server off the disk it creates a directory something like c:nethaspserver. Look in that directory for a file called lmsetup.exe run that then set it to run as a service (provided your running NT or W2K or XP). That should fix up your issue. HTH

You can only update the NetHASP from the nethasp server. The update is only done thru a file no codes to type in. Launch the nhasp9 utility on the net hasp server set the net hasp to nethasp local then choose update code file and show it your code file. HTH

I've been asked about this more than once... The aplication was always a feed screw. Allan

I would think the "number of threads" you want would be a function of the number of threads per inch times the length of the thread. I assume the user joliver to be asking about a multi-start thread... Could be wrong, so i edited my reply to include the posibility that they were asking about a variable pitch thread. Allan

Yes, Number of starts > 1 Look on the third page (I think) of the parameters. If your looking to change the pitch, no easy way I know of. HTH [ 05-07-2003, 04:19 PM: Message edited by: Allan ]

Fplot.dll Look in your C-Hook Directory for this file, there is a document to go along with it that has a short explination of how it works. I have used this file for producing a parabolic curve generated by a quadratic equ. It souds like this might be what you are looking for. HTH

The control works in remote mode only you need to select the file to recieve at the control. No sending from the computer, only requesting at the control end. HTH

quote: I have heard of a control that will be able to read/create arc toolpaths' say at a 45 degree surfacing toolpath. I can't remember which it was though. Sounds like a Siemans Control, the trick here is that the plane needs to be defined in the code before the arc. Here is a blurb from Northwood Designs the makers of MetaCut Finish quote: Arcs may be fit in one of three methods: 1) relative to the standard orthogonal planes (XY,XZ,YZ). 2) relative to any rotation of the standard orthogonal plane. 3) to completely arbitrary planes (3D arcs). Almost all controls will machine arcs using the first method, some controls will allow method number 2, and a few controls are able to machined true 3D arcs. (*note- a 3D arc is not a helix). HTH

I've got a customer using the LSV2 protocol on there Dialog 11. Incedently Cimco is the only product that works on this control IMHO I've tried Multi-DNC they claimed it worked it does'nt tried Predator NO_GO. Cimco, "It just works." What type of problems are you having? I believe the cable is a hardware handshake type HTH

There is a very good document in the startmenu ,programs, mastercam >what's new in Wire 9.1. It will explain all about the new features in Wire HTH

That backplot looked funny. The contour type was incorectly set to a 3D Contour, changed to 2D, then I regened, still no good. Changed to rotary axis positioning set the axis to Y, then changed to Axis substution...All is well. File is on the FTP. DRUM_ALLAN.MC9 HTH

To borrow a solution from Bullines, Simple fix: 1. Using IE, copy all of the code. 2. Paste it into Word 3. Copy it from Word and paste it into Notepad.
