M-Cam Machine DEF Change

[lucas257]

I've used the same Machine Definition in MasterCam for our Haas VMC for years, I've went through a couple computers without a hitch. And yesterday I made two separate programs and the operator told me it was the wrong hand of direction...Well it was true, I made it left handed, the rotary turned it the opposite. It somehow managed to switch the CCW/CW setting for the rotary as well as the switching from Unit/min to Degree/min...I'm the only person who programs here and I of course didn't change this, and it's not like its one button click in an easy menu that changes this, it's a few...Wondering how something like this could even happen?

Cant say ive seen or even heard of that one before.

Sure no one else has access to it ??

 

Did you check the date of the last save on that file ??

I can honestly say no one else has access to it other than IT remotely being able to access my PC. I have an external hard drive and server and server copies of Mach. Defs and posts that we use on our machines that I know work. The last save date was in approx. 2012. It's just odd, I've made hundreds of these same style helical parts, and just one day two of the most random settings are changed...kind of scary
