  1. I have seen this issue with copied planes in 2020 and 2019, Hopefully 2020 Update 1 should improve this problem
  2. Update the graphics driver to the latest one. NVIDIA P1000 is supported
  3. I use these settings as a default, values are metric, So far I have not had any issues Roughing - G131 F11000 J2 E0.05 D0.01 I2 L20 R0.3 K0 P0.01 Q5 Finishing - G131 F11000 J1 E0.02 D0.01 I2 L20 R0.3 K0 P0.01 Q5
  4. Does the machine have the DNC-B or DNC-DT option? If no then you cannot drip feed a program
  5. Create a linked folder, save the below as a batch file and edit the paths mklink /d "C:\Users\Public\Documents\shared Mcam2019" "H:\MyDocs\MCAMtests\shared mcam2019" mklink /d "C:\Users\Greg\Documents\my mcam2019" "H:\MyDocs\MCAMtests\my mcam2019"
  6. I think it is correct, you have a custom plane yes?
  7. Yep that solution has been sitting there for 14 years until I needed it today, saved me a by bunch of time, gotta luv a forum
  8. I have found CAMplete support to be excellent. Can you share a Mastercam file that does this?
  9. There is a KB article on this http://kb.mastercam.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50653.aspx?Keywords=machine+sim
  10. Update windows to 1903
  11. Sheiki, Send me an email I will do what I can
  12. I have a slightly newer card P2000 on a Dell 5530. Windows 10 1903 and driver 430.64
  13. What is roughly the size of the part? Bigger than the chuck or smaller?
  14. Send it to me I will take a look or Create a new format statement and use this one fs2 25 0.2t 0.2t #Decimal, absolute, 2 place with trailing fmt "F" 25 feed #Feedrate Dave was 18
  15. I think the only solution is to rechain the contour
  16. Mastercam 2020 still has Port expert. What areas are you after some info on?
  17. Have you got the M253 special mode option? I did some tests years ago on an A77, I pretty much had the same result as you with M250/251/252 I believe that this one will need super GI mode G05 P10000 to turn it on
  18. Yes, you can either draw the chuck or import it. Set the chuck as a fixture in simulator options
  19. Seems odd that you need to add 150 to the C axis, somewhere in there you will be able to set the zero position. What post are you using? Could always say p_out = p_out+150?
  20. I am not a Heidenhain guy but they must be a way to move the C axis machine zero point?
