Toolpath renumbering

[POSEIDON 5-AXIS]

When you load a new Machine Group, and then create your first toolpath, Mastercam asks you for a new NC name.  So, you go ahead and put one in.  Now lets say you use a certain number sequence for your machine, for example.....100101.

 

So someone else comes along and opens a copy of your "project", and wants to post these toolpaths to their machine, but wants to rename the NC name to their specific numbering sequence, for example.....200101...., where do you change this????

 

Also, can i give every toolpath within in machine group a different NC name to post with????

Highlight the toolpath you want to change, right click, and select "change nc file name"

 

You can change each toolpath to whatever you want, but if you do that each toolpath will post as a different file unless you modify your post.

Oh, yes, sorry, that i get.  Can i change the NC name for the whole machine group, so that they all post out with the new NC name, or do i have to change each toolpath individually?  It's like Mastercam assigns an NC name for the whole toolpath group once you add your first toolpath to the group, but, can i then change the "group" NC number, or is this all individually done?  Does that make sense?

Select all program ops you want to change so when you change the NC it changes for all that are selected.
