X+ Setup Sheet and Tool List - 3rd party Add-on

[CADCAM3D5AXIS]

Thanks Gunther

the Lathe part of X+ Looks great and works Great Just like the Mill Version1 WELL DONE !!!

[peon]

Thanks Guenther!! I have noticed that the cycle times have almost doubled and are way off on the pencil and raster paths. Has anyone seen this?

[Mic6]

Can Somebody put this on the FTP? The OP's link is blocked here. TIA

[Glenn Bouman]

I noticed that the Transfrom toolpath is not supportted. Any plans to include that?

[Jayson Kramer]

I created a X5 add-ons folder on the FTP and put the lasted version as of 12-21-2010 in the folder.

I am not getting the icons of the tools and the company logo at the top. Is there something that I missed?

[Reko]

I used to get an output of the XYZ Gnomon to my set-up sheet, but on my new computer it does not show.

 

Is there a setting I can change to get that back?

 

Also, tl_dia, tl_rad, and stock show only 2 decimal places. Can I edit X+ to output them as three decimal places?

 

Thanks.

Some Windows settings can affect the screen capture. Try to deactivate some of the visual effects. i.e. animated windows.

Decimal places can be set at Control panel---> regional and language options--->customize button.

I had a custom setup sheet made for me from X - X4 and now it will not work for X5. I would like to try to use X+ because it looks close to what I had. But when I tried to down load it came up in German. Like post #17 said (If you downloaded the English version it installs in German but when you run it will be in English...) when I tried downloading this I got error messages in German. My operating software is XP.

[Günther Massimo - GMCCS]

When exactly did you get the error? During downloading? During installation?

Thanks.

 

Edit:

 

I turned on "Display WCS XYZ Axis" in the Mastercam configuration. This outputs the XYZ Gnomon for my operators.

Yes during installation.

I just got it to down load. I’m trying it out now.

Hi I was wondering where I can change this The German wording at the top of the page not that there is anything wrong with German I just don't know how to read it! Thanks for your help

 

Have fun life is to short our kids grow to fast just enjoy.

[Reko]

^^^ Look above you.

[Diesel Tom]

The rest of the page comes out in English. I guess I worded the post wrong. I want to put my logo up on top. Thanks.

[Reko]

Replace the logo.png file to any picture you like. The logo.png file should be located in the mcamx directory.

 

You should open the logo.png in that directory to be certain this is the file you are replacing.

Hi Guys,

I have downloaded the X+ but I cannot get it to work. Am I missing something in the set-up or config file

to make it work? I don't remember having this problem before in X4. When I click on set-up sheet in toolpath manager

nothing happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated, we love this set-up sheet!

I use "nci prog_name" from the Available Parameters list.

I did that and I get a square box.....not my company logo....

 

Worked on X4 no problem ...

Columbo,

 

I have Windows 7 and I placed the logo.png file here?

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\mcamx5

 

Also, my logo is 194 x 167. Could the size of your logo be the problem?

 

I didn't have any problems so I'm just trying to come up with some things for you to try.
