Hi Perfecseal Mankato , My original library (from V7) had plunge rate=0. Not by convertion to V8. The generic plunge rate you show, it help anyway but it is not the one we are looking to. The one we want: if plunge rate = 0, don't output plunge rate. Thanks Paul

Hi all, Is there the way to set in the post do not output plunge rate = 0. (F0.)or if plunge rate = 0, out- put feed rate. I know in tool parameter if plunge rate = feed rate, the post do not output plunge rate, else output plunge rate. But my tool library created base on V7. all plunge rate = 0. It work OK on V7 post.(not out- put F0.). Now we have problem in V8 or V9. We use Mpmaster.pst (V8 & V9) Ex: N100 T8 M6 (1.0" END MILL) N105 S1146 F8.02 N115 G0 G90 X-8.5575 Y.6314 N120 G43 H58 Z3. M8 N125 M3 N130 Z.1 N135 G1 Z-1. F0. <===== plunge rate N140 X-8.1575 F8.02 <===== feed rate N145 G3 X-12.1575 I-2. J0. Thanks a lot

Hi all, Anybody can help me to convert mpmaster.pst from V8 or V9 back to V7.2 ? Thanks Paul

You mean for 2d geometry toolpath? I think we don't have that option in MasterCam. You can use two toolpath for that example. First pickup the outter pocket enter -.100 dp finish that pocket complete, second make another toolpath for inner pocker enter -.100 in parameter top of stock. and -200 dp. in depth parameter. It might help

Hi all, In V9 they have option "Reference point". How do we get it to work, which variable in the post we have to set ? Thank you all

Hi Frank, I recommend to use Cimco DNC. We have 25 machines in our shop. we tried few softwares and we finally choosen Cimco DNC. With Cimco You can send or receive the CNC programs at the machine, plus you get back the confirmation messages where you save or where you read from. Truely
