Can someone suggest a solution to my little problem? I have created the toolpath and saved the post but when I take the floppy to my machine it will not find the post there. Machine looks for file with extension *.pmc. When I edited the post as *.pmc it finds it ok but on verify machine displays bunch of errors. The post I was using is mpfan and my machine is Fryer Machine with Fanuc controls. Thanks

In your post at your general output settings, down at the bottom of that section create this line;

 

sextnc .pmc #NC extension override

 

This will set uour file extention of your G-Code file.
