  1. Thanks you are right. Don't know why it didn't work for me the first time (or I over looked it)but I got that same post to work too that you mentioned (Generic Fadal Format_1 4X Mill.pst). So, then I tried to see what in that post makes it do exactly what it does, I try to do the same in my post but no luck. Its the only thing left to do to this post and I can put it to bed. Thanks Psychomill for the effort. I'm going to give it a good once more. tanks
  2. Hello, I am updating an old post. Ran it thru the X2 updater, Works great and now I am adding Rigid Tapping that it did not have before. Got it to work just fine. But, there is a code that if I am posting a Rigid tapping cycle a G84.2 (or G74.2 for left hand) needs to be at the beginning of that tool maybe just before the address loc. after spindle on. This is for a Fadal CNC 32MP, look something like this.(below) Our other post in our other app's (NX, Gibbs and so on) that we have been using for a while now have this. so I'm not sure if I need it or not. It says in the book its a "Prepare for G84.1" code. Anyways I cannot seem to get it to Post correctly. What is the key callup codes to make it post. I have studied the generic Fadal post w Ridgid tapping and it works. but without the G84.2 code. Thanks in advance............. G20 T6M6 * TOOL 6: .25 RIGID TAP E1 S100M3 G84.2 G17G90G0X.1977Y-.0807 Z2.H6M7
  3. All is good w the post now making many changes to "Generic Fadal Format_1 4X Mill.pst". There are some places to watch out for. Some mistakes that will screw up you part if u use the generic without the alterations I've made. Thanks for all your help.
  4. That link worked I found something in it and the post works great so far. testing now
  5. oh ya Im using the "Generic Fadal Format_1 4X Mill.pst" post that came with X2
  6. Fadal G8 code. I believe its acceleration, It smooths out the axis movement I think. They would like to see it in the code. So I am trying to include it into my post but, I do not want it in any event but a milling event. No drilling where can I place it. Thanks ahead of time.
  7. Thanks. was just checking out the nethasp and the lic. checkout.
  8. Thanks so I eat up a mill 3 and a 5x when I launch a 5x w a modifier. Like this: C:mcamxmastercam.exe /s /X5 /V5 Solids 5X 5X verifier
  9. The switches we use at startup. For Solids we use /s right? Well five axis I use X5. not a problem so far. but If I do, do I use up a mill level 3 as well? or not.

  16. Hello everyone, working in x2 now and for the life of me I cannot remember how to fix the nci file names to match in my operation group to be the same so i don't get the post generating multiple programs. I use to just run ncifix.dll in 9. Please help me. this is a newly installed MC here where i work and i dont have access to the chook old or new ncifix file if that is still the way to do it.
