Unlocking Industrial Efficiency: The Comprehensive Guide to SoMachine V31 Exclusive

Conclusion: The Last Great SoMachine Release

  1. Install V31 in a Windows 10 LTSC (Long-Term Servicing Channel) virtual machine.

  3. Use a dedicated Ethernet adapter for the machine network—do not share it with your corporate LAN.

Licensing & Installation

  3. Run the installer as Administrator from the \SoMachine_V31_Exclusive\Setup.exe path.
  4. Select "Custom Installation" and uncheck modules you don’t need (e.g., CANopen configuration if using only Ethernet).
  5. Reboot at the end – even if not prompted.

2. Backward Compatibility with Obsolete Hardware
