Q. What switches can I use to manipulate Mastercam's startup behavior?
A. There are a number of 'switches' one can use to manipulate the way Mastercam starts. For example: you can add the /M1 switch to limit Mill to level 1. If you have a NetHASP, adding the /V5 switch enables you to evaluate a Verify5Axis license upon startup.
For list of available startup switches, please download this PDF file.
