What do you do to fix it?

I have my gig sd card and a USB reader. Can trow it into our Gildemeister Sprint 20 lathe and we could use it in the DMG 64v Linear mill we had last year. That was slick. Fanuc controls are windows 2000 or CE based it acts just like it would on the computer. You just find the file and open it. The mill also had bluetooth, I am pretty sure anyway, never had anything to test it.

Thanks for the advice, no luck. There were no errors in the conversion.

I used update post to update my V9 MPHEID post (modified to work well) to X from V9.1 . In this process it has seemed to work fine short of one little problem. It won't output the feedrates on drilling and tapping cycles instead it outputs -20. I tried the stock mastercam version and to no success either(seeing if it was my mods). Can anyone shed some light on this? The standard V9 fanuc post updated and works just fine as well. (testing if it was a version problem, no that I need it.) I would contact my reseller if I knew who it was. I am a student and one of our administrators picks up the software. I am not allowed to speak with the reseller without the admin on the line as well. So needless to say I am annoyed by editing posts each time I post a drilling cycle, I have been getting frustrated trying to sort this out, and am losing time on some club parts that need to be made very soon.
