The Controller Information area displays the controller discovered by PC-DMIS during execution in Online mode. This section shows four display boxes with this information:
Controller drop-down list: Select your machine model for interfaces that support multiple machine models. For example, the Metronics interface would have TESA VISIO 300 Manual, TESA VISIO 300 DCC, and Custom types. This option MUST be set in order to configure machine configuration settings correctly for the target machine. For interfaces that only support one type of machine, the option is automatically selected for you.
PC-DMIS connectivity: Displays the supported version of the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) interface for this version of PC-DMIS supports. The HAL version should be the same for PC-DMIS, MSI, and HSI. A warning is given if differences are encountered.
MSI (Multi Sensor Interface) connectivity: Displays the supported version of the HAL interface for this MSI.
HSI (Hardware Specific Interface): Displays the HSI used during execution. This component controls the specific hardware device.
CMMI (Coordinate Measuring Machine Interface): Displays the name of the CMMI interface to be used. Click Setup to open the Machine Interface Setup options for the CMMI controller (e.g. Brown and Sharpe LEITZ).
You should provide this information to Hexagon Technical Support when you report problems.
