Still interested in any v9 tricks Iskander. Goin to wait another year until we upgrade to X. Might not post back here in your thread but you have tought me a HEAP over the years. Always a pleasure to learn from you. vanvany You may want to read thru this first. Ftp upload instructions Username-Mastercam Password-Swiss You will have to use IE to access it. If you still have problems, do a serch on FTP Site. There has been a ton of threads with all the problems solved in them. One of the most common is- Internet options / Avanced Tab / uncheck " Use Passive FTP" :cheers:Darren

Only other thing i can think of mig is that if the spindle was rotating before without a tool, the spindle clamp proxy switch may have been sending the wrong message to the contoller all this time, Thus this is why you have be able to rotate the spindle without a tool it it. I tryed it on my 3 year old MB56VA, OSP100E controller just before i left work and there was still no alarm coming up. Can i ask why you want to run the machine without a tool in it?. Darren

David Your right, no maint. here. No luck with Bob or Alfred. Neither could give me an answer as to when they will be getting them.

Good Morning I have contacted my reseller about a X Demo disk. They do not know when they would be getting them over here. After looking at a few past posts i am aware that they had run out, but that was weeks ago. Can anyone give me some idea of when they will be shipping any demo disks over to Australia. The boss is jumping on me at the momment cause he wants to spend some money, but we need something to show the powers that be before we get the go ahead to purchase. Thanks in advance Darren

Matt i have only seen this come across my computer once and it was not a file from MC9. It had something to do with Solid Edge Integration Service Pack 2. Are you running this?.

C.N.C. Software After having a look at the “Introducing Mastercam X” link ,i,m going to spend the rest of the week sucking up to the boss to get the upgrade. And a big thankyou to all the beta testers that have copped so much crap along the way. Job well done.

Dont know of any off the top of my head. What kind of character are you trying to draw charleschia?.And welcome to the forum.

I get the same David. To fix it i do exactly what Jay said. Open your operations manager in all sessions of M/C and you should be able to download your emails as normal. I do this when tranfering from the FTP site or internet also. Darren

DavidB Did you end up seeing much of X at the Austec Expo.?. All i got out of them was a short look at M/C Art. No use to me what so ever. Glad you could drop in RandleX. Thanks for the input. quote: MC is losing customers daily. There not losing me mate.

Iscar and Sandvik here Bruce. If i order from Iscar before 3:00pm in the arvo i can get most of the tools and inserts down from Sydney the next morning by 11:00am The same with Sandvik. I can get them from Singapore over night if the order is placed before 3:00pm. Sale and backup support from both company,s is great down here. Darren
