I think this licensing thing was a poor decision to begin with. I can understand the reasoning for GenRad to issue a software license, to protect their product against cloning. Why Universal followed could have been caused by the take over and the

I agree with Steve Huey, as a former Field Engineer and Asian Customer service manager living in Hong Kong for almost 10 years with little blue, there has been an incremental hit on all of the OEM's combined profits.They needed a strategy and some sc

I have read with interest this string of opinions about support of old machines. I am the service manager of Contact Systems and I deal with customer support every day. Our policy is to treat all owners of Contact machines in an evenhanded way. The w

Just to let all the folks no. If you register (and pay the fee) a machine with any (OEM) company in the USA You have the same rights as a new user. Companies like UIC, Gen Rad, Agilent, etc came up with these fees to discourage buying used equipment.

I'd be happy with it just checking if all the pads for placement are on the board. The software (GSM) seems to complain if any of the part is off the board. I got around it by just making the board larger. I'd also like it if it just had a button for

Allowing a part to go over the board boundaries can cause collisions when boards are nested. The software on these machines has limitations but it is plenty capable and rooted in preventing physical damage to the machine. Once you are familiar with t
