## Step 2: Launch PC-DMIS Gear

To launch PC-DMIS Gear:

1. Double-click the PC-DMIS Gear shortcut icon on the desktop or select Start | Programs | PC-DMIS GEAR and then select the PC-DMIS Gear shortcut icon.

2. The PC-DMIS Gear application appears. If this is the first time the Gear application is run, it will start in Programmer Mode as shown below.

The Programmer Mode will be used to:

- Define the basic parameters for a gear.

- Drive PC-DMIS to measure the gear.

- Evaluate the measured data and create graphic report.

Note: There are two modes that Gear can run in: Programmer Mode (shown above) and Operator Mode. Gear will start in the mode it was in when last shut down. Operator Mode is currently functional for Cylinder Gear inspections only.

Note: Your portlock must be programmed with the Gear and/or the Spiral Bevel Gear option in order to run PC-DMIS Gear. Gear modules (Gear or Spiral Bevel Gear) will be available in PC-DMIS Gear according to your portlock settings.
