Go to Screen Configure

then NC Settings

then NCI Path

Set Initialize NCI Path to

Current MC8 path.

Exit Screen Configue, saving the changes.

Once you have saved a MC8 file to a new name

open the Operations Manger and right click

in the white space. You'll get a menu popup.

One one the choices is Options/

Change NCI Destination.

When you click that a file page with

newfilename.NCI will come up.

Click OK and your done.

All the operations now have your newfilename.nci and the changes you've made will post correctly

Hope this helps

Are you reverse posting NC code back into MC?

You might want to try backplotting with the save Toolpath as geometery option checked.

You'd still have to descibe tools and chain the geometry though. It would be a lot of work.

I've never tried to do what you are doing so I'm not much help.

I use Predator Virtual CNC which can verify

MC8 files via a Chook or verify Gcode as a stand alone program. Its a very cool program
