Breakpoints are supported. Breakpoints can be used as a debugging tool, but once a measurement routine is running on an unattended server all breakpoints should be removed as well as any other commands that require a response to a prompt. Breakpoints will not stop the execution on the NC machine; only the PC-DMIS execution will be affected. Since PC-DMIS NCI is interactively executing the measurement routine on a single user system, operator prompts and responses may be entered as normal.
Statistics update commands prompt for response. To automatically update the database, select the Always Update Database option on the Dimension tab of the Setup dialog box.
Several variations of COMMENT commands also require response, so they should be removed prior to running the measurement routine.
