All Activity

I think licensing might be a problem. Assuming the OEM embedded the key in the firmware, I assume it is a key for the IoT enterprise flavor of Windows, and I think in order to get it to activate you would need to install that flavor, meaning Win10 Pro would not activate. Tom did show that Microsoft still has the Windows 10 download tool, but if that doesn't offer IoT Enterprise as an option then you might be hard-pressed to find it, as it was really meant for OEMs and system integrators and wasn't freely available to download. But, as Abbas suggests, if you have a company IT department then your best option is to make it their problem.

Hello I would talk to your IT dept, usually windows license keys are attached to computer motherboard. when you install then new SSD and windows again it might detect the license key from motherboard.

Per my copy of the PDF that you are looking for: "This manual (in printed or digital form) and the attached electronic templates are copyrighted. No part of this documentation may be copied, reproduced, translated or processed, multiplied or transfered by means of electronic machines without the expressive approval by Carl Zeiss Industrial Metrology ("ZEISS"). Non-compliance will be prosecuted." Am I now in trouble because copying this excerpt constitutes as "part of this documention"?

I forgot to mention I am using Calypso 2019

@Thomas Gorman Do I need specifically? I don't know. What do I use for a serial number? I assume the serial number from the case is only good for the enterprise edition. The computer is not Windows11 ready so I would probably re-load 10 Pro, but still don't know about the SN. I'm pretty sure you can still get the image. I downloaded earlier in the year so that may not be an issue. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

@Abbas Ahmad I am trying to install the same version of windows on a new ssd.

@DWCCan't get into BIOS with SSD connected. Cannot view any files when SSD is installed as a secondary drive in a working computer. Disk management does not see it either.

We have a Knowledge base article that gives you overview of what windows version are compatible with what version of calypso https://portal.zeiss.com/knowledge-base?id=815374

i would also suggest, if you are upgrading the windows version, to make sure it is compatible with the version of calypso you are using.

Do you actually need LTSB 2016 specifically? I don't think Microsoft is offering any of the Win10 images officially anymore, and LTSB 2016 end of support is in a couple of months. If you just need an OS so you can get a CMM running, just throw 11 Pro on it. Our IT department did that for 3 of our shop machines and it's been fine.

Hello I would suggest contacting windows, to see if you can install a different version of windows on your SSD or same version, they can also provide you with the product key/license for your windows to install if you do not have that already .

SSDs mostly die for sure. I think dead controller. I had no luck with "shorted cap" on any SSD

@Tom Oakes Can you give a little more description about not being able to access files? Can you see it detected in BIOS? Does the SSD appear in Disk Management but shows RAW or Unallocated? Or it it not detectable at all?

You can edit most of the icons or replace them with the ones from older versions.

The SSD on my Zeiss computer has crashed. I need to install windows10 IoT ENt2016 LTSB High End on a new SSD. I'm very comfortable with other versions of Windows installs. Has anyone ever done this ? Can anyone give me specific info on which version I need to download? I have tested the old SSD in another computer and cannot access files.

I am using own dialog form in python to fill header, store measured data, make pdf ( ask to store and continue if it's with errors - not calculated and so on ), export qdas. I have in queue a program for 3 parts in one scan - using built-in function for that is not good - seems like you have to copy whole program for every part, which seems bad for changes of a program - so i'll do that with python to separate each scanned part from mesh and make stages. So i'll be doing almost same thing as you 🙂

Please note the following.

in this specific situation I want to use the content of the keyword to create a file name for PDF export of the report. Thanks for your help.

Awesome! Thanks Mike

I believe you can see if is this stage enabled, but i'll try to look at it tomorrow at work. So your intent is what? Only reading of enabled stage keyword from report header?

There is a difference between gom.app.project.in_stage and gom.app.project.stages The first one only takes the enabled stages into account, while the second has all stages. I have to create an index list for the enabled stages and find the index in this list for further usage. Or is there another method available? Johnny

Great for beginners who are overwhelmed and need a foundation, but advanced to experts most likely will not use it.
