Does anyone have a good guide to setting up machine and control definitions? I have the following machines: Haas Minimill w/4th axis Haas VF-3 w/5 axis trunion Haas Sl-30 with live tooling and bar feeded Haas 5 x 10 Router Ona Wire EDM Ona Sinker EDM Omax Water-Jet I have never set the machine and control definitions and might need some guidance. Thanks

Thanks Guys, I am in contact now with my dealer for modifying the post! You guys were exactly right. Leonard

I am selecting Peck Drill in Lathe and when I post the job, it reads customized drill cycle and then gives me no depth. My Peck is .2 subsequent is .2 and retract is .2 So when I run the job, it goes to the entry of the part and then returns home and does a tool change. Any suggestions? Thanks

Hey Colin, I would just like to post to any one of these machine with NC code. We had 3 seats of McamX as well and would like to send the job from work station to machine and then run the part. Thanks, Sorry for not answering that Q first.

Is the Predator something I would purchase through my Mastercam Dealer? And just roughly, not gonna hold ya to the cost but what would something like that cost? Thanks Guys

My HAAS SL 30 recognizes G84 Vs. G32 which is what all the generic post in X3. How do I change it so that it outputs G84. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks again JPARIS, It sure is there and I changed it. Leonard

Awesomeeee, thanks a bunch.

I was just wondering how I had Cimco for V9 and have X3 now and don't have it? Thanks

I am machining a lot of molds that are P20 steel. Who prefers coolant and who prefers Oil, and which brands do you like to use of either? Thanks

I have some Harvey tools, i use a lot of .125 ball with taper clearance they seem to be jam up but was wondering if there were any other good competitors.
