5 This primarily affects the output of machine- and control-neutral programs (POF format). OPEN MIND does not offer any guarantee for problems that are due to com-patibility issues involving third-party Notes instructions for new customersInstalling the softwarePlease note that the installation requires that you have administrator hyperMILL software is protected by an dongle or license server. Each licence is unique. Secure the li-cence against loss!For further information, please refer to the installation guide, which can be found on the OPEN MIND you will also find the latest information on system you have further questions, please contact the languageshyperMILL is available in the following languages: German, English, Italian, French, Dutch, Japanese, Chi-nese (Traditional and Simplified), Korean, Spanish, Czech, Russian, Polish, Slovenian, Portuguese (Brazilian)and Notes on functionshyperMILL SHOP ViewerReusing SHOP Viewer data (also called SHOP Viewer Pack & Go data) in hyperMILL is intended for OPENMIND support and analysis purposes only.

6 If Pack & Go data are changed in hyperMILL and then saved withthe Save as function, the usability of the resulting file can not be Strategies on machines with Non Endless Rotational AxesThe following Notes on 5X strategies on machines with Non Endless Rotational Axes applyif your machine is not equipped with the hyperMILL VIRTUAL Machining Center. Pleasecontact your OPEN MIND partner for further information on the hyperMILL VIRTUAL Ma-chining MIND recommends defining the toolpath in such a manner that no tension- Release rotations are neces-sary. It is possible that the geometry to be machined will need to be broken up into multiple jobs, or it may benecessary to define alternative toolpaths. This may increase the complexity of the toolpath MIND recommends proceeding with extreme care with these toolpaths if tension-re-lease rotations cannot be avoided. The entire sequence for the tension- Release toolpath from the retract movement from the workpiece up to the re-approach is not collisionchecked!

7 If a postprocessor run with stored solutions is performed, the NC file contains no MIND additionally recommends taking appropriate measures to first successfully test and execute thetension- Release toolpaths, such as for example test runs above or next to the part, or without the part in which include tension- Release rotations should be run separately on the machine if possible (not as partof an NC program with multiple operations). Using additional verification software for NC programs can helpincrease safety. OPEN MIND recommends using the hyperMILL VIRTUAL Machining tips are intended to help successfully execute the defined toolpaths and prevent damage to the CNCmachine. Please contact your OPEN MIND partner if you have further questions on this Notes allowancesThe following restriction applies to all cycles: If the sum of the allowances is negative, the sum total must beless than the Tool radius - Machining :Tool radius = mmMachining tolerance = mmAllowance = allowance XY must be greater than mm, , because| mm +( mm)| < mm mmIn this context, the area-based allowance is also taken into account as an allowance in the Milling area definition.

8 If several values are defined here, only the smallest value is taken into Simultaneous MachiningImportant note for 5X simultaneous users with controls without great circle interpolation:The hyperMILL cutter path calculations for all 5 axes cycles (except 5X Multiblade) are based on a great circleinterpolation between the tool orientations. If your control works with a different interpolation type and cannotbe modified for great circle interpolation, please contact your OPEN MIND partner to have your hyperMILL configured accordingly. To see the interpolation type with which your control works, refer to the documentationof your tool typeshyperMILL generally only supports the tool types listed in the documentation. Other tool types, in particular,angle tools or angle heads are not cuttersSpecifying a nominal diameter of less than mm or less than inches may prevent the activation ofa tool radius correction.

9 Please avoid specifying such feedrates in hyperMILL refer to the respective tool reference point. Therefore, feedrates can occur on sin-gle axes that deviate from the value of the tool reference point. A parametric feedrate output is generally notsupported, particularly not for linking jobs if the underlying sub-jobs contain feedrate and 5X Rework Machining - Linking job - Compound jobInitial situationReference job: Generate NC file is job: Generate NC file is Reference job and related Rework job are used within a Linking job. Generate NC file is automatically dis-abled in both Reference job and related Rework job are moved from the Linking job into a Compound job. By doing so,the Generate NC file option is automatically enabled in both jobs. It has to be manually disabled within theReference job of external tool data into the OPEN MIND tool databaseWhen importing external tool data to hyperMILL tool database, the synchronization is now performed by aWindows service.

10 This service only works if it is set up on the same computer on which the hyperMILL tooldatabase is the OPEN MIND tool database is running on an SQL server, this limitation can be circumvented as follows: Release Notes An SQL Server login must be created on the server. For this purpose Server authentication (SecurityProperties on the server node in Management Studio) must allow Server logins on the server, not onlyWindows When creating the DSN file With SQL Server authentication .. select and enter User and After creating the DSN file, the password must be entered manually in the DSN file: PWD = ..The service requires read and write access to the file exchange directory used in order to be able to performits task. Please note that the service uses the restricted account of local Windows services. You may have togrant this account the necessary also applies to the database file (*.)
