  1. I mean like the Mastercam op/ parameter pages. So when I post the questions/answers , there are more clearer picture of what I'm talking about. Thanks
  2. Thank you Colin. It work perfect. And it's must easier that the MC help tell you to do. BTW, How to do a copy and paste picture to here? I try the .jpeg file, .bitmap but none allow me to do it. Thanks again.
  3. I try to go to the help and read all the info but still can not do it. Here're how I do: 1) I open up a tool geo for the slotmill, changing the geo with the doubleangle, save it under difference name (doubleangle). 2) When define tool, I choose undefine, custom tool, then it lead me ot the tool list, I choose doubleangle. But It have an error: Problem with custom tool file or data. I don't know how to copy the picture of the tool so I can paste it here but I'm sure I follow the instruction from MC help. Can someone help? Thanks
  4. I want to used a double angle tool for chamfer inside a groove but I can not create the tool so I can verify the tool path. Can anyone help? Thanks.
  5. Hi All, I came across an old tool library .TL9 (Mc9) that I want to load it in to MX2mr2. Can you guy help. Thanks
  6. Hi All, I just changed my computer and having a problem with the MX2 mr2 setting on communication and verified parameter. I changed the setting parity,baud rate...etc on the control def. and config file like I need. But when I open the Mx2, and used the communication, the setting are changing everytime, not the same as I set before. I check the control def, the setting are there and exact like I set.Why is it difference when I use the com. button. It is the same for tool color on the verified. Can you guy help? By the way, i only use one machine so I use MC comm. Thanks
  7. Hi All, How to do the filtering in MX2 Mr2? Like you want to reduce the program lenght by change to arc move instead of line move. Thanks, happy Friday.
  8. Thanks Eric. One more questions if you don't mind. Why is it when I set the normal for three surface so the arrow going one way, it doesn't work. I have to set two going same way and the middle going opposite, then it's work. Thanks
  9. Hi All, I need some help in offseting surface. I creatting surface from a solid model in SW. There are 3 separate surfaces on the part. When I use the flowline tool path, one surface offset in one direction, one in another. How do I fix the the surfaces so they can offset in one direction. I have to end up do one op per surface at a time. Thanks alot.
  10. Hello, How do I get rid of access material( unwant) after I finished verifed the part. In Mc9, I would click the material and it's disappeared. How do I do it in MX2MR2. Thanks.
  11. How do you create an STL file from a 3d solid files or from 3d wire frames. Thanks
  12. I doesn't work for me. I try many times. I guess just wait for them to fix the bug?? Thanks Millman.
  13. I just download MX2 mr2 sp1 and upgrade my system. Some reason, the autosave doesn't work. I go to the map key, the current map key is ALT+A, but the dialog box not pop up when I do it. I changed it around, but still it doesn't pop up. Anybody can help? THanks.
  14. Is there anyway to look at the geometry on the operation manager and know what level that geometry used is on? Right now, I go to each level to see if it hight light and it take too long. Thanks. MX2 MR1 sp1.
  15. I'm using a Mc9 post to upgrade to MX2. On the Mc9, when I post, I have the N# only for beginning of each tool so it is easy to search. But when I upgrade to MX2, it post the N number in every line. I notices on the machine group>property>file>toolsetting>sequences #, that is where it put out when I post. Is there anyway that I can overide it and tell it to post using my postprocessor instead. Thanks. Merry Chrismas & Happy Newyears to all.
  16. Thanks Cr. That's is what I want.
  17. Hi Cr, You know how it is on MC9 , you can come in and set C plane = to T plane. In my case, sometime, I go to front or right to do draw geometry or analyze geo, first,I set C plane, then the z depth, but sometime if I don't change the T plane, it will draw on the T plane. I don't know why, it doesn't do it all the time but it does. When it does, I do check my C plane and it was what I set. T plane should not effect when you draw geometry right? Thank for your reply.
  18. Sorry, I'm using X2 MR1. Thanks.
  19. Hi Guys, How do you set C/T planes alway equal so when you changed one, it automatic change the other? Thanks
  20. Thank TH. It's still got the same problems, but I can import only tools now. Maybe, I try to to what GL recommend. Have a good weekend guys.
  21. Happy Friday. I'm running in to this problem, maybe someone can help. I export all of my operations in to a files, but when I import it to another new file, it delete out the same tool I used. EX: I used T1=.500 to rough and T2=.500 to finish. But when it come in, T2 is delete out and T3 became T2. Also, can you import only the Tools, not operation? Thanks.
  22. Hi all, I'm having a problem with the deep holes(it's walk on me at the end), so maybe someone can help. The hole dia. is .125+-.002 4.500 deep.Mat. ALu. Here are how I do it: _spot drill -drill .120 about .750 deep -drill with .125 2fl.endmill .500 deep _drill .125 regular jober to 1.7 deep _drill the rest with .125 extra long The hole dia. is within the tolerance, but the holes is walk around .008 at the end. Are there any methods that is better, beside gundrill?. Thanks ahead.
  23. How do you do it in MX2? I can break at length relative to something, but I just wonder MX2 has this function like MC9 had (break at lenght). Thanks.
  24. Thanks alot Colin. So that is a trick. I didn't continue when i see it all hightlight. Thank again.
  25. Same thing Gcode. Whether I choose entities first, I still can not do a partial chain. I try to turn off the plane mask, and use shift key, it still not work. The only partial chain I see it work is when I run the toolpath. Something I didnot do right?
