You can configure how PC-DMIS interfaces with the Leica interface from the Edit | Preferences | Machine Interface Setup menu. This opens the Machine Options dialog box with these tabs:
System Information tab - This tab displays information for your configured Leica system. The included values are: IP Address, Tracker Type with Serial # (if available), Controller Type, T-CAM Type and Serial # (if available), emScon version, TP-Firmware version, Bootdriver version, and Nivel Type and Serial # (if available).
Debug tab - For information on this tab, see the "Generating a Debug File" topic in the "Setting Your Preferences" chapter of the PC-DMIS Core documentation.
The Machine Interface Installation Manual (MIIM) provides additional information for this interface.
You can access the MIIM help file from this link: .
Minimum continuous scanning time and distance settings enforced by PC-DMIS

1ms (0.001) A performance hit occurs when setting a minimum time value less than 0.01 mm as Time Delta. |
0.01 mm You need to set the 403 min / max settings for 10Hz (901 is 1000 Hz). |
For Leica AT9x0 trackers, if you lose communication between PC-DMIS and your AT9x0 tracker, the software displays a Connection Lost message and PC-DMIS goes into a "disconnected" state. Check your cabling or wifi to re-establish communication. Once you re-establish the communication, PC-DMIS returns to Online mode without restarting.
