Aaron,

Please can you record this and save for us to access at our leisure afterwards.

It will be very much appreciated.

Thanks

[Aaron Eberhard]

Absolutely! I'll post in this thread (or at least, in a relevant and visible place) afterwards so everyone can enjoy.

[Rotary Ninja]

That would be so awesome. I work in a learning disabled facility. So I have to wait til I get home to learn anything

Is it always Monday @ CNC?

Thank you Aaron!

[Aaron Eberhard]

Kevin - That sounds painful

 

Is it always Monday @ CNC?

Thank you Aaron!

 

It's always Friday!

 

No, seriously, we don't routinely (as of right now) do webinars direct from CNC, as most people work with their local resellers for support and training. I've just seen a lot of questions/problems on here that are due to there being SOOO much new & different in X7, that people have no idea how things SHOULD work, let alone DO work, so I'm trying to get a jump on it, to make everyone's lives less painful

 

The best solution is, of course, to attend your dealers' rollouts, as there's tons of information on all of the new products and how to use them, but this'll whet the appetites and hopefully get people using it effectively in the short turn.

 

We are actively working on trying to have more open dialogs, q&a sessions and stuff with our customers in the near future, though, so make sure you like us on Facebook and all of those things the cool kids do so you can keep up

This is great news. There's nothing more frustrating/infuriating (delete as applicable ) than posting on here (emastercam) a question, and asking 'please can someone from cnc chime in', and no-one does.

Recordings with links would be great so I could watch them at home on Monday evening.

• I agree 100%. I can watch at home without ten people bugging me, or swearing all I'm doing is playing on the internet all day.

Hey watch it Rotary Ninja! You are close to infringing on my screen name...lol!

[Rotary Ninja]

Haha. Sorry bout that. I change it frequently though. So I won't infringe long

 

Thanks for the webinar Aaron. Great stuff. The new tool manager looks great!

[Aaron Eberhard]

You're welcome, sir! Thanks for attending!

 

It looks like the encoding is just about done, and then I'll get this file up on the intarwebs for anyone who missed it to check out.

I asked a few really 'geeky' developer-type questions, and I immediately recieved in-depth answers.

That's because the Alpha Geeks were in the house on that one

 

Rich and Jon were in the room with me, and the rest of the tool team were riding shotgun over Gotomeeting. Those guys did a great job with the program, and were amazing at answering questions (and letting me know what I missed!) during the presentation.

[mayday]

Nice job Aaron, I already put in for a request to have a snap shot of the tool assembly for set up sheets. How is that coming along?

[Aaron Eberhard]

Thanks Wes!

 

I'm not sure, but I forwarded this thread and your question over to the appropriate people.

[Aaron Eberhard]

Okay, I just checked up on it, if you go to the link to register up above, you can download & view the webinar right there.

[Hardmill]

Good stuff, enjoyed the webinar

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PEACE

[Jrygus]

Hi Aaron, Try as I may, I cannot get it to play. I tried it in Chrome and it locks up. tried it in IE and I don't have the Codec for it. Can you tell me what Codec is required?

 

I can log in and I get the link to watch recorded Webinar, but it never shows the video. Am I doing something wrong?

[Smrk]

Today i noticed, that when creating new tool in tool manager, there is "tapper angle" and "tapper length" column to define cone between cutting diameter and shank. Thanks for that option. But if i want to edit existing tool, i can't find these values in tool properties.

[Chad 73]

Would you know what codec's are needed to view this? When i click the link and play it , it opens Media player and starts with an error. I am assuming i am missing a codec.

[PLANET]

I'm getting a missing codec error also.

[garf]

Is it possible to put the video somewhere on a webspace where we can download it?

I cant view the video on my home computer, and i cant view it on work (codec error).

Since i use VLC i normaly never had any problems at viewing videos.

 

greets

[Aaron Eberhard]

Sorry about the delay on communications here, I've been over at Mazak's open house. I don't have a computer with Web access, so I can't check what's going on today... I'll try to squeeze it in at night some time this week, but it's a crazy week with Eastec and all of the machine tool open houses. Sit tight, I'll let you know as soon as I get something figured out.

[Aaron Eberhard]

Oh, and I did see this, I don't know if it will help you out or not..
