  1. I had same kind of errors when I installed X2 in C:mcamx directory. I just uninstalled it and changed it to C:mcamx2 and it worked fine.
  2. It doesnt alarm in our Johnford vmc. It just revs up and then stops and start the rigid tapping.
  3. quote: “ The spindle will start by itself. It will actually run faster because it will come to a stop before it starts the tapping cycle if you turn it on at the beginning.” What do you mean when you say “spindle will run faster”? I think he meant that the program runs faster that way. if you put S200 M3 in a different line than M29, the spindle will rev to S200 and come to a hold and start the rigid tapping.
  4. Sharles there is help for your second problem click
  5. Try ram saver and regenerate again
  6. Go to control panel add/remove programs. It should be on the list
  7. M16 thread with 2mm pitch. drill size is 14mm. H7 tolerance is 0 to +0.018mm.
  8. Drop the rpm to 400 and use bigger drill if possible. We use coolant and rocol rtd with it.
  9. We have been running two of our machines with usb/com adaptors almost a year now and have had no problems. Dont remember the name right now but those cost about 20 euros.
  10. guess Im the only one with this problem.
  11. I tried it and no effect. Also if I try to go to rmb settings page, it crashesh and trows me out of mastercam. I cant send the error message to CNC- software because I dont have internet connection in that computer.
  12. After I installed MR2, my mouse right button doesnt work anymore. I Installed side by side so I tried it in MR1 and it worked there.. Weird stuff...
  13. There is an option in drill point manager to filter duplicates
  14. Have you tried ram saver? It worked for me..
  15. After creating curves use simplify. Now you have arcs and lines
  16. Same problem here. It goes point to point and the track that tool leaves is not circle.
  17. I´ve had "error generating operation" also. I had two session of mcx open and it messed up both of them.
  18. You can use it in verify to see if there is places where the tool leaves material (doesnt fit in corner ect.)
  19. Just tried it with demo. You are right, it has different name. guess that was the problem. Thanks.
  20. I have a simple program that I use frequently that has some drilling and contouring in it. Today I added a contour toolpath that makes a chamfer to the part. Now when I choose all toolpaths and post it, the new toolpath doesnt post. If I post only that toolpath, it works. Everything looks fine in backplot. I guess it has something to do with MD. The original program was done before I updated to MR1. Could that mess it somehow?
  21. Also if you use arrow keys to play the backplot, it always jams the first time and I have to mouse click the vcr bar again to get it work. Little things but annoying because it worked before..
  22. I noticed the same thing with retract and feed level depths missing in backplot. worked well until mr1.
  23. Is it even possible to update X demo? I tried to, but doesnt seem to work. I sometimes try stuff with it at home and it is really frustraiting to use because of all the bugs and crashes.
