Wizards Toolbar

Wizards toolbar

The icons on this toolbar are bound to external wizards that come installed with PC-DMIS. These wizards serve to increase the usability for new users who are still learning how to use the application.

These wizards are available:

3-2-1 Alignment Wizard - This wizard walks you through two basic types of alignments: a 3-2-1 alignment and a two circle alignment.

CAD Import Wizard - This wizard allows you to import single or multiple CAD models into the Graphic Display window. Click the icon and a dialog box appears. Select one or more files to import and then click Open. This replaces any CAD data that already exists in the window.

Data Field Edit Wizard - This wizard lets you replace certain fields in the Edit window that you cannot replace using the Replace dialog box. See "Editing Data Fields" in the "Editing a Measurement Routine" chapter.

DMIS Out Wizard - This wizard helps you export a DMIS output file of your inspection report.

Iterative Alignment Wizard - This wizard walks you through the steps to create an iterative alignment and explains the rules behind the inputs to the alignment.

Multiple Execution Wizard - This wizard lets you loop your measurement routine execution indefinitely or a specified number of times. You can also choose the specific message to display between iterations.

Probe Wizard - This wizard demonstrates how to define a probe and enables you to calibrate the newly defined probe.

Database Wizard - This wizard helps you create and register ODBC databases. This only appears if your license was configured with the Integrated Stats option.

Decremented Functionality

The PCD2Excel Wizard (PCD2excel.exe) is no longer supported and is no longer available from the user interface. It does not support Geometric Tolerance commands. Please use the Excel Form Report instead (Insert | Report Command | Excel Form Report).

For details on how to use the Excel Form Report, see the "Using the Excel Form Report Command" section of the PC-DMIS Toolkit Modules documentation.

While we recommend that you use the Excel Form Report above, the PCD2Excel Wizard is still available in the "C:\Program Files\Hexagon\PC-DMIS 2023.1 64-bit\en" folder of the PC-DMIS installation location.

The PCD2Excel Wizard will be removed in a future version.

PCD2Excel Wizard - This wizard exports your PC-DMIS measurement routine data into a Microsoft Excel file of your choice. To configure the wizard's options, click Configure. For information on the configuration options, see the "Configuring Excel Output" topic.

Excel 2003 or later is required for the PCD2Excel Wizard to function properly.
