Why wont this job post right?

[Toolfab]

This has happened twice now in two days. I have two jobs, very similar. I program each one sepperatly. 28 operations in one job and 37 in the next. I go to select all and POST. Takes the NCI just fine, then I go to save the NC file and it throws up some crappy arse error. I say YES I want to view the error and I get nothing. If I post the ops one at a time, it works. This makes the editing process alittle INTENSIVE!!!

 

NCI destination is the same, there is nothing wrong that I can see. Have you ever come across this? Is this something new to the recent MR? WTF

you wont catch me saying that

mine did it too

reinstall fixed it. and that just sucks

mayday teh not installing downloaded patchs anymore. reseller cd only (unless theres a patched patch)

[Toolfab]

So you had the same problem?

[mayday]

yes I did paul, among others Im still trying to iron out. Peter from S4A has been leting me cry on his shoulder a little with some of my grief. he thinks its meh system but I still am not sold on the MR

[Toolfab]

Its so intermitten, and that is the only issue that I am having. I did send the file to Mattera so I will see what he comes up with.

 

I just really dont feel that it is my system...

[Tom Szelag]

In a different student shop I've run some Milltronics CNCs, posting the program usually presents a dialog box "Errors detected during posting!". But ignoring that and running the program works just fine...

 

Whether or not you want to take that risk with your part is up to you!

I always wait to update software because there are always problems out of the gate. I don't like to be a guinea pig.

[Toolfab]

That is the way that my setup sheets work Tom. This is different because if I ignore the errror then open it up in the editor, I ony get one op out of the 28 that are in the op manager.

 

I have to actaully post the job 7 times selecting a few ops at a time then editing them together in the editor. That is way its such a pain..

[Toolfab]

I dont mined being the guinea pig, that is why I am a Beta Tester. This is just a weird problem that is really hurting the amount of time it takes to get a job done. I was wondering if anyone else had the problem, if there is no fix, then I will roll till there is one. If something has been figured out, then I would really like to know.

[JazzBass]

Sorry Bro, Didn't know you were a Beta Tester. I have no patience for software that contains errors.

Review your NCI file names in your operations

very carefully.

Suppose you have

MC9 SP2 installed in C:/MC9

and you install

MR0105 in

C:/MCAM9.

Now you open a file that was started in SP2

and add a couple of operations in MR0105

The NCI files will have 2 different pathnames

and the post will get brain damage trying to post

the entire file

[Jimmy Wakeford from Barefoot CNC]

DO you have any spaces in the nci name? Ifso remove them.

[Toolfab]

No spaces and brand new job. Just started it and finished it today. The NCI name is 09186-B, the other two programs were 09186-C & 09186-D, those two posted just fine.

 

Weird

[summit fever]

I had the same problem last week. Only thing I did was run the MC disk and click repair. Everything seemed to work itself out. Also, check the maintenance update files and run the one for the NCI bug. Haven't had a problem since.

LA LA LA......

Not me Baby.

[mayday]

LOL Threept

[crazy^millman]

What I have done is to do a save as with a new NCI name after I get all of the operations done this seems to fix this problem.

 

HTH

[Toolfab]

Tried that too Ron. I got the same results.....

 

 

I need this weekend!!

[Toolfab]

Now I just did a job that had 85 operations and it posted just fine.....
