Automesh in .tcl script

I'm using a .tcl script to automate meshings. After creating a geometry and surface I use

 

*automesh 1 5 1 

 

to conduct the automesh function. For a short moment the status line in the bottom left corner shows 

 

'Meshing module not initialized'  (with a red cross at first place)

 

Then the command windows shows a '0' and the bottom left corner status line switches to

 

'Ready'

 

without any effect.

I've also tried the *automesh_mc command like prescribed in the Hypermesh Documentation like

 

*createmark surfs 1 all
*createmark meshcontrols 1 1 2 3
*automesh_mc surfs 1 1 0
 

Also no effect. I only have on surface.

Please help, I'm thankful for any advice.
