To all Stratasys FDM RP system users:

FDMCOM mantra (released at September 20th, 1999) can now be downloaded from http://www.protech.se/fdmcom

FDMCOM is a user friendly and FREE communication tool for the Stratasys FDM user.

Featuring:

* an easy-to-learn GUI
* time estimates
* SML file info browser
* 2D roads top view
* Paging functions
* Calibration

All this for $0!!!

NEWS IN FDMCOM mantra:

* Heavily updated GUI, strived to imitate a CD players front panel and maintain ease of use.
* The pager function now pages after a given idle time.
* Total time estimation now is as accurate as the system time. Time reported in hrs and minutes. Previous time-not-resetting-to-zero-after-part-is-done-bug eliminated.
* Job info dumps in .../SYSTEM/history.log for easy importing to i.e. spread sheets.
* Part foot print box is drawn in the roads window and measures are printed in the status panel after selecting each SML file.
* Internet Status Tracing function removed due to lack of use.
* Init function also removed due to confusion. Just browse for "BT_xxxx.PC" files and send them as if they were SML's.
* "Clear controller" now as a stand alone button in TOOLS/SETTINGS.
* Removed lots of junk to keep .exe file size down.

Direct any questions regarding installation or operation of FDMCOM mantra to:

PS: I plan on getting the fully FDMCOM home page out within the next two weeks.
