[Me...] Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 What is the controller connected to? If the controller is not responding to a reset/shutdown, then you may want to unplug the CMM and wait a few minutes while the memory clears up. If you have the ability to connect a monitor to the CMM computer (Not your PC) then it may display what its hanging up on. send a screenshot if you can. The other thing I can think of is these cables are possibly not "hot-swappable" so remember to fully shut down when plugging/un-plugging your connections.
