What brand of mouse are you using.

I bought a Logitech VX nano and it caanot rotat in MCAM or SolidWorks. (Per customer service)

That will be the last Logitech product I will buy!

Doug

Be careful what you buy, I bought a Logitech vx nano and it won't scroll in Mastercam or in Solidworks.

I had no trouble with Microsoft mice.

Doug

Has anyone got a Logitech VX Nano to scroll in Mastercam or solidworks?

Check that your planes are set correctly

for that tool

Kevin,

I found that NOT setting the t/construction planes correctly at the start of the op generated this error. Once the planes were set correctly it went away.

This is obviously a Senior Citizen thread.

I am still using my 1984 HP41CV (about $220. then)

Doug

John,

Reopen was already unchecked.

Steve,

I renamed it to CimcoEdit.exe and renamed the old MR1 installation and now it seems to be working OK.

Thanks again to everyone for their help.

Best regards,

Doug

Thanks Ernie.

Doug

When I open the nc file it also opens the Cimco exe file in the editor. It opens both files for editing at the same time!!!!!

The nc file is "opened" ready to edit but the cimco exe file is there as a tab and I can click on it to edit it or I can right click and close it leaving the nc file open.

Needless to say, I do not attempt to edit the cimco file.

I hope this is clear now.

Best regards,

Doug

Ron,

I am using the stripped down one.

When I open an NC file to edit in x2 mr2 cimco_edit5it also opens the Cimco exe file.

Anyone else seen this?

Best regards,

Doug

Shawn,

I have had this error when the tool or construction plane was not correct.

Doug

John Summers,

Thanks, that email comes to me.

Jay,

Every time I think I have cracked the WCS/plane thing I get a new puzzle, but it is going OK.

Best regards to all,

Doug

John Paris,

I expected it to work that way but will try again tomorrow.

John Summers,

How do I get the camshaft utility?

Thanks to both of you.

Best regards,

Doug

I want to create a series of planes at 45 deg increments round a camshaft c/line.

I can get to A180. by rotating the A0 plane but when I try for A225 it does not create A225 and show A135 on the screen.

Any tips on the best way to do this would be much appreciated

Doug

GCODE,

That worked too.

I never even thought that one could untrim a surface created from the solid like that.

I don't know if I am any smarter today but I am wiser.

Thanks again.

Best regards,

Doug

John,

I was going to try that next if there was no better way.

Ron,

I forgot to mention that the part is a solid from a step file.

I was able to use your information after I created surfaces inside the holes (from the solid).

If I am missing something about using the solid let me know.

Once again thanks to both of you for your endless sharing of your valuable experience.

I have a shaft with holes at various angles, but all perpendicular to the center line.

I want to drill them on a 4 axis machine.

Any hints on how to generate the hole axis.

I don't think Verisurf's prog works as I have no circles to select due to the curved surfaces (Diameters) on the part.

Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

Best regards,

Doug Gabbey

Check with your dealer.

I was sent last year's codes for renewal 3 days ago.

Doug

Snehal,

Thanks for taking the time to help. That worked out for me.

I am printing this out for future ref!!!

Best regards,

Doug

BUMP

When I rotate a mill operation I generally don't want to output a new G55 G56 etc.

Is there some way to set the default to prevent this?

I am at home and can't remember the exact wording but there are 3 choices at the bottom right of the first? page.

Hurry back Chris.

Jay?,

I found this by googling catia+c18

It found many references to "cracked software" also.

Hope this helps.

try picking the other end of the line for hole axis or center.
