Topic: Predator doesn't launch, or launches the wrong version

Technote 219
Date: April 2006
Product:All SmartCAM Applications
Version: v13.x and up

Problem:
Using the Icon Bar in SmartCAM to launch Predator, the wrong version is launched or nothing is launched at all.

Solution:
The version 2005.7.0.12 of Predator is installed in a different directory than previous versions so the peditor.mcl file will need edited to point to this new location.

The line:
#EPath="C:\\Program Files\\Predator Software\\Editor 6.1\\PEditor.exe"

Will need the location changed to this:
#EPath="C:\\Program Files\\Predator Software\\Editor 7.0\\PEditor.exe"

The peditor.mcl file is located in your SYSMCL directory, typically here:
C:\Program Files\SmartCAM\SmartCAMv13\SHARED\SYSMCL
