Since NC controllers cannot do the analysis of the point data, the controller sends the data to the NC Server application. NC Server loads it into the original PC-DMIS NC measurement routine for analysis, reporting, statistics, and so on. NC Server must be in Analyze mode to evaluate data.
If you later execute the measurement routine inside PC-DMIS NC, PC-DMIS NC can access the recently created journal file to get the stored point data rather than from the actual NC machine.
