Jimic,

That would have been one of those priceless moments.

His pen might leak and ruin the paper. The boss would say his Papermate crashed and was too unstable. Try rock carving it now.

Quite honestly, we all use Mc a little differently and small issues for one user may be big issues for the next. I prefer to test drive the new releases and make the determination myself. If you do the "side by side" installation as mentioned, you can always use the version that is working for you if you have trouble. I opened mr2 for testing and have not gone back.

Again, he is the boss I got to get his promission first whenever I upgrade or make any chnages with Mcax.

Really? I upgrade asap. If I am the one using the service, it should be up to me. As long as there is no cost involvement.

His boss probably too tight for maintenance!

 

 

Hell best $$$ I ever spent was buying Mcam Maint.

Yea, John says the guys an idiot.

I know you have to spend alot of time with a program to learn it well (home and work seat time) but I have trouble convincing my boss for work time to set up my tooling and machine settings. Is this normal?

[Guest]

I just do it.

 

You cannot get good, accurate repeatable code UNLESS you are set up properly.

If he was, he wouldn't be here asking questions about installing a maintenance release.

I hear alot of "I need it now" and then when its late "why didn't you prepare"

Setting your seat up correctly IMHO

 

IS preparing.

 

[desmotom]

We've had v9 for a while but nobody used it till I started working there. I am new to programing about a year but have a lot of seat time with v9 from school. Now that we have X I want to get set up properly and efficiently. I have about 12 machines to program for lathe and mill and I am on my own. Plus I need learn X

[Guest]

Can you take the key home at night?

 

That would go along way to getting over the hump of how do I do this?

 

Then you can go in, dive right in and set what you need to and move on.

[desmotom]

Probably not. Can't even get my mitts of the book for a night. Can you get a academic version of X. I had one for V9 from school.

[3rdstring]

You shuold be able to get a demo version from your reseller to play with at home.

[desmotom]

I'll have to look into that. Thanks

Nothing is impossible, Maint expires and could have between MR1 and MR2 etc...etc... so on and so forth.
