    TL2 Hour Timer

    You know that annoying thing that gives you a certain amount of run time and then requires a code when you run out? Has anyone found a way to disable that or generate keys? I'd really appreciate some help there.

    Well, instead of hacking the Haas code or generating a faux dongle (both of which are highly illegal), why don't you simply turn off the trial version of the code you are using, when you aren't using it? That way your 100hr trial time is extended considerably. It makes no sense to have that code turned on when you aren't actually USING it.

    no no its not a trial the machine is leased. it's just annoying as hell to have it turn off in the middle of the run and then have to run to the phone and get a new key. they give you a dongle? my understanding was that there is a key they give you after the loan is paid that disables it.

    Is this the 800 hour alarm that tell you that the machine will lock up if you don't enter a certain code? If so, contact your HFO and you will receive a code that is genereated from your machine's serial number. I bought a MiniMill outright, but the alarm came up at 700 hours with plenty of warnings to get the code before 800 hours. I received the code the same day I requested it.

    My understanding is that 'feature' is in there to ensure that lease agreements are honored. If your account is in good standing, you should not have any problems.
