ProE Vericut - default location override

[marker4x4]

Hi,





how do you override the default ProMan embedded version of Vericut?


We have newer version installedin a different network location and would like the NC Check to grab that one instead of the default, half-a**ed one.





Thanks!!!

Did you go the the vericut site and ask on their forum? They don't have near as many postings there but when I had a vericut issue they helped me out.


Just a thought.

Thanks for the tip.

marker4x4 - Here is a portion of the proev.bat file I use. It allows the user to select either the standalone or the embedded version. This may give you an Idea on how to customize your startup for Vericut. You should be able to just edit the license file path and the CGtech path.
