Strange Posting Behaviour

[Leigh @ Kodiak]

I have a bit of an odd problem here. I'm trying to post a file that has been posted many times before, but for some odd reason, it is posting one operation out of order. It appears at the end of the posted file regardless of where I have the operation placed in my Ops manager. The other strange thing is that at the beginning of my operations it shows the toolpath group for that particular op, but with the one that is out of place, it shows it as being in a toolpath group that does not even exist in my mastercam file any more. Anybody know what is going on here, or how to fix it? I have already tried to reload my machine def, and also tried running ram saver with no luck.

[gcode]

Select ALL the ops in the file

then

Right Click

edit Slected Operations

then

Change NC filename

[Leigh @ Kodiak]

Yea, tried that multiple times already too.

Try running ram saver, if that doesn't help try closing the file and re-opening. These two fix alot for me.

As I mentioned, I already tried running Ramsaver to no avail. Just tried to close MC, and re open with no luck....still the same problem.

In Ops manager, create new machine group, then copy all operations to the new group. Delete the existing (old machine group) and try to repost. I wouldn't recomend saving during this until you are sure it worked or at least save as new file name before messing with the file in case it gets messed up. I don't know if this will work but it's worth a try if you haven't already.

[gcode]

try renaming all the operations to a new and different name..

[gcode]

if all else fails..

delete the problem operation

and recreate it in the correct location

[Leigh @ Kodiak]

Tried that already as well, Gcode. Working on copying the ops to a new machine group now...will report back.

[Leigh @ Kodiak]

Ok wow...

 

So I copied all the ops into a completely new machine group, and when I posted them, I still have the same problem. Also, all tho ops show as being in their original toolpath groups rather than the new one. Guess I will just redo the op from scratch.

I know that reloading MD file also fixes alot of problems

"I know that reloading MD file also fixes alot of problems" What is the MD file?

[Superman]

MD , Machine Definition

 

It binds together the control, machine config (axes etc), and post as 1 selectable file.

 

Reloading the MD would be similar to restarting Mastercam

or

reloading a driver for a PC conponent that went screwy

put the file up on FTP site
