I noticed change from 6 to 7. When creating setup sheet in 6 the 2 files mentioned were put in root folder where Mastercam file was. Now in 7 it defaults those 2 files to my documents folder. Is there something I can do to get them in root directory and not fill my documents folder? Thanks

There is one more option I wish it had was geometry column so it showed # of chains or points.

X+ for version 6 is there one? The set up file for 5 i downloaded only loads in non english and did not seem to work in 6. Help me if you can. Thanks Jeff

how is the schunk brand magneos?

ram saver only dropped 288 kb but speed of loading file was the same.

My memory buffering is set at default of 50% 1023mb.

It seems to run real slow when I have both Mill & Wire paths in file. Regen of tool paths has really slowed. Also will not display mill tool paths after adding wire paths. Any tips.

I reinstalled it. Does not show up on tool bar list. What else could be wrong?

when I try to do a no core. this is the message I get. 'pocket(stanard)' not found in your operation defaults file C:mcamxwireopswire_inch.defaults. I know there is one there i have altered the settings in it. Plus it does not make a good program. tries to thread wire out in space then feed back into hole center be fore pocketing. Any ideas?

I have this same issue, but only when there is wire operations in file.

that is all I was doing was getting it logged. and yes put red arrow back into mill area. there is other minor problems with both in same file but I will work around them till The next update.

here is a glitch I am getting. I have programed a block for mill and add my next machine group and do my wire paths. When I see I need to add another toll to the mill paths. I add it and get this error when i got to post. Cannot read from nci file id#6 contour 2-d if I go and delte wire paths and machine group and add extra mill tool path to the first mill machine group. it works just fine. then i have to redo wire from scratch.

I found my wire paths, but they show up set to top contruction view. I had the tool plane, construction plane set to the plane needed before I began programing. The program puts out the proper x,y cord. Is there a setting to fix this?

here is what the post says to do. # Coolant output code selection for X style coolant # Note: To enable X style coolant, click on the General Machine Parameters icon # in the Machine Definition Manager, Coolant tab, disable first check box # Output of X style coolant commands in this post is controlled by pcan, pcan1, & pcan2 here is what i get when i do that.

I want to use this post, because of all the new options in MCX. which my old post does not support. The only problem in getting it to work it will not post a m89 to shut off through tool colant. This is in post now. sm09 M9 #Coolant Off sm08 M8 #Coolant Flood sm08_1 M8 #Coolant Mist sm08_2 M8 #Coolant Tool scoolant #Target for string fstrsel sm09 coolant$ scoolant 4 -1 This is what i changed it to from my old post. Still does not help. # Coolant M code selection sm09 M9 #Coolant Off sm08 M8 #Coolant Flood sm08_1 M8 #Coolant Mist sm08_2 M88 #Coolant Tool sm07 M89 #Coolant Tool off scoolant #Target for string fstrsel sm09 coolant$ scoolant 5 -1 What else am I missing?
