Machine Sim .. Machine doesn't show up?

[djstedman]

I have created a new machine in machine sim to represent the machine I am working on..

 

I can't seem to get it to show up in the list of machines though.. the documentation says to put it in a folder that doesn't exist (created folder .. tried it.. never showed up)

 

I then added it as a new directory in the folder all the other default machines are in under the /common/ directory.. still doesn't show up..

 

Any suggestions as to how I can see the machine I created so I can choose it to work with?

 

(using X7 MU2 btw)

Can you confirm that this is the folder you first tried adding your own machine folder to?

C:\Users\Public\Documents\shared mcamx7\MachineSimulation\MachSim

No I hadn't. I did that and it solved the problem.. Thanks..

 

The documentation showed it going in the MCAM directory under a moduleworks folder.. i'm guessing its just a help file that was never updated.. thanks again for the help.
