  ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
(a) The Audit Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Cimetrix Incorporated (the “Company”) recently conducted a competitive selection process to determine the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014. The Committee invited several public accounting firms to participate in this process. As a result of this process, the Committee approved the appointment of Tanner LLC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014. This action effectively dismissed HJ & Associates as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm as of April 1, 2014.

The reports of HJ & Associates on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. In connection with the audits of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and in the subsequent interim period through April 1, 2014, there were no disagreements with HJ & Associates on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope and procedures which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of HJ & Associates, would have caused HJ & Associates to make reference to the matter in their report. There were no reportable events (as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) during the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, or in the subsequent period through April 1, 2014.

The Company has provided a copy of the foregoing disclosures to HJ & Associates and requested that HJ & Associates furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether HJ & Associates agrees with the above statements. A copy of HJ & Associates’ letter, dated April 3, 2014 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.

(b) During the two most recent fiscal years and in the subsequent interim period through April 1, 2014, the Company has not consulted with Tanner LLC with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that would have been rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, or any other matters set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) or (ii) of Regulation S-K.

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits
Furnished with this report as Exhibit 16.1 is a letter from HJ & Associates, LLC to the Securities and Exchanges Commission dated April 3, 2014.
