Programming PC-DMIS Help (I'll Pay!)

(Indianapolis/Columbus IN Area/Remote) Guys and Gals. Ive been in QC/QA for a few years and running Calypso for the CMM. Recently I had an opportunity to move to a new company to attempt to fill an immediate need they have running PC-DMIS on a CMM they use once every 3 months, maybe. They are going to send me to the week-long class as soon as I can prep and get away. Yes, I know Hex and others can come but those take time to organize on my end.

They said, "Take a month, fire up the CMM, dive into the programming and see what you can learn on your own and tell us what you need" (don't trash them, they are fighting to get out of a mess with me). They've given me a part to learn and Ive taken 3 weeks and have a good handle. Ive read every help page, tutorial and video on Hex, XYZ, etc, You name it, ive looked or watched it.

I think I have learned quite a bit but I have nothing to compare it to and there are so many features built into PC-DMIS that it will take time to learn them all. I have a part that has 3 Datum and 10 total features to measure. I can set my camera up over my shoulder if needed and you can walk me thru some of these features I need to know before I finalize my program. Who knows, you may look at it and realize I know NOTHING and this is a lost cause.

Let me know what you think of this idea, i may be way out of line, just don't be a jerk, that's all I ask. Thanks in advance, Rich
