I use cimco for okuma and mori it works great.

deja vu

Reference points all the way, that what I do

My changes the program and then changes it back before my shifts starts so I don't, but I know the machine tells me (program last updated 3:20pm)

okay found it, had to select it manualy, it won't prompt it.

One more question, I imported a tool file from version 9 and it had alot of tools that I use, but when I imported it and opened it in X some of the tools listed were not there as they were in version 9

I went to window explorer to copy a tool file and rename it but under mcamx/lathe/ there is no tools folder? When I call up a tool for my geometry it can't find library.

need help

I have the same problem at my work too. Every program I write I have to make sure everything is perfectly golden, even if I have a spelling mistake in my notes I hear it. I blew up at him once and it was a waste of time. He's not happy untill he changes something in my program to save the world until he puts his cape on another day.

where's the other part?

I imported my tooling directory from version 9 using import and I selected tl9 files but I couldn't open them in version x (had to compress?) where do I compress the files?

I tried that and when I make a toolpath and select a tool from that library no tools appear, mabey I am overseeing something?

When I select a tool library I can see the tools in the window only in some of the existing libraries but not in the ones I imported. How do I copy an existing library and rename it like I did in version 9. There are different file extension do I just use the tool file?

If there was one book to buy to give you a total overview of everything which one would it be if there is such a book.

Thank for the input on this subject. I agree totally using a zero in the control is a better way to go, but my programming with mastercam is replacing the manual programing in our shop and all the programs they have made use a value in the haas control in radius. I guess it might be time to change.

I just started programing for our haas machines and I used cutter comp wear, but on the machine they input the radius of the cutter in the controller. This didn't work with mastercam, I had to put the radius of the cutter to zero for it to work properly. Why is this and can I change it somehow. I usually just program lathes so mill is new to me with mastercam .

I would go slow around 200-300 rpm and slow feed .005-.01 ipr, going to make some noise probably

My post output the right code now. Thanks Allan

I just got MR2 hope I don't start falling behind.

Have similar machines, 403, 603. Still refining my posts but right now I just program the hole manually. My posts don't output the right format.

Thanks for your input everybody

Ducks are awesome(desmo)

Going for training just see where I will fit in, I'm thinking advanced

I am assuming no 3D in basic

What does intermediate and advance involve?

I am getting Version X tommorow, I think with MR2. Am I going to fall behind with X2 coming out soon?

How many levels of training are there for V9 and how far does each level go?

You can restart anywhere with the fanuc. I just single block through my start up and then press edit and scroll to the line I left off on if its safe or I'll start a couple of lines before it. No problem.
