A great feature of E10 NC is background calculation, which
allows you to calculate tool paths in the background
while continuing to program at the same time. The tool
paths that are calculated in the background will display on
screen when they are complete, which could be a distraction
when programming. However, you will find inside the Execute
function dialog an option called Execute and hide that will allow
the tool paths to execute in the background, but not display
them as they complete. To choose this option, click the small
green check mark rather than the large green check mark in
lower right corner of the Execute window.

Cimatron License Manager is an add-on that
comes with version 10 for those
that use floating Cimatron licenses. It replaces
the FlexLM used in earlier versions. Several new
features have been added to the Cimatron
License Manager since the original E10 DVD
came out, including the Group Manager
Utility. The utility provides a way to assign which
users are given access to each floating licensed
module. This prevents users from taking over functionality they do not need
and depriving that license from another user. To get the Group Manager
Utility, contact tech support for a download link.
