Edit: NVIDIA® Quadro FX 3800M 1GB 8 gig of RAM

I use Ramsaver 25 times a day And I have an 8 gig Video card!!!! As soon as my model starts jumping off the screen (Like in X1)when I "let go of a dynamic rotate I have to do a Ramsaver to stop it for about 25 more views before the whole process repeats itself. CC cleaner doesn't help A reboot doesn't help The more operations I add, the more WCS 's The worse it gets. Like a handful of guys here say. "Hard to get any work done going through this process day in and day out" I would go back to X3 but it has the Transform Won't backplot or verify Bug.

I'm on my way Dan.. Just waiting for John #1 to call.... Tony

There is a ratio of Z cut versus the Cutting dia.

"Delay here as well, not only is the delay annoying it slows works flow tremendously, and gets worse the more tools and operations you have. Also noticing greater delay when adding tools from manager. 64bit here as well". This is exactly what I'm going through. I am 99% ready to go back to X3 mu1 and post through X4 The Boss wigged out as he just paid for two seats of Maint.

I run .003 & .008 tolerences in Verify with MR2 and haven't had that problem since.

Esc. ? I am hammering on esc. on the upper Left hand of my keyboard like a telegraph operator sometimes. When MC won't pick the right line etc I have to polygon window it or turn it a different color the select Only color etc. If it really hairy I project the whole thing up in the air so I can window it easily and do a Alt E Hide then clearly see the issue. I miss having a seat of SW on my box I would do 75% of the modeling there and import Clean, just what I want .sld files

All the time and Working on my C drive Yes I see this all the time the more WCS'S I Add etc the worse it becomes. If I click on anything else in MC While the lag is happening (Like before I even see the spinning egg timer etc) MC locks up and says Its waiting for me to respond, the operations then stay greyed out forever. I sent it in and QC said they couldnt repeat it. I bring in a lifter top wcs/ bottom wcs Tools 1-10 merge another two more WCS (Same tools) On and on, also I copy and paste the previous Groups operations Edit common / planes. Then throw those toolpaths and tools onto the next model. In no time MC X4mr2 with a 8 gig of ram / System 7 / Quad core /64 bit / latest nvidia driver / PC is Choking. Sometimes when I try to open parameters to edit something the operations window fly's off and disapeers under the task bar forever When I try to exit because I'm stuck MC says It's waiting for me to respond again. Last night I imported a HSM pencil path Then..... My Hot keys were triggering this to now!?! The only thing I can do next is Run Cam studio and send the footage of my Screen into QC along with the log file. Gotta run 5 hours of daylight left here!

Mayday Telling it like it is...

Chris My modded Mill.set does that.. Only gives you me the max Z per tool I manually right that # into my printed .exl Set up sheet Works for now. I'll send you my set up if you want...

Our VMX 10,000 rpm Hurco spindles I never ran all day and night past 7,500 rpm and even then they were hot to the touch, Our VMX24S had a different spindle and could run 15,000 rpm all day and be cool to the touch.

Thanks Wendy I'm on it... I'm looking for something like this:

I just went down Jims road today with Tech support, it's a Dead End.

I'm working on one. Just because of the Overkill as you stated. Program name Screen shot Tools with Dia and corner rad. Tools speed and feed Tool Maximum Z cut in each operation (Laser touch off here, nothing like breaking the tool at 3 a.m. and having it p.u. the holder as Z 0 and then running the program with the Holder)!?! Last but not least Cycle time. I'm 80% there with this project and will post back here with it.

Posting G code or "Labels" into the controller I have the books but there pretty dry. I'll go through it one day. Were swampped with deadlines looming and I'm Running stuff thinking there has to be a better way then using this controller solely as nothing more then a buffer. Thanks Guys!

Hi guys I'm on week two with these controllers and was wondering where?! is some sort of a "Cycle interrupt" Like when a tool breaks.. I used to be able to hit Cycle interrupt and reset the tool and start the program back at any line in the program (Fanuc) Or if I could interrupt the cut and send the tool Z home , then jog the table forward so I could see what's going on, then hit resume and have it go right back where it left off would also be great "Draw" or some sort of a graffic representaion How do I Run the program and see it on the screen? The stock size is called out in the post / .H code already? Last but not least on my Wish list is a M01. Before I tap, I like to be there. Is this possible with these controllers? Thanks Guys Newbie all over again

Hi Guys I am programming two sessions at a time One on each screen. My question is While one session is The cavity side and the other is the Core side etc. The Tool #'s don't jive (Of course) and I have to go over them and edit one or the other.Yuch. Any ideas how to attack this? I can't have T1 always a .500 Flat endmill either. There isn't enough Tool holders. It's a pallet thing. Many pallets programed from different MC sessions Thanks Guys Tony

I turned it off , it worked great that afternoon. The next day I couldn't generate a single toolpath. It's back on , Also my reseller went through my box via a net meeting and ticked everything just like they have. Today I didn't have a single crash Windows 7 can't get here fast enough!

I get it all day long too, sent it in over and over...Surfaces, tiny file. nothing fancy.

If your sticking your toes into the water Lease Software, it avoids the Fire Sale or in this case No Sale.

75 % of the time. Sometimes what I am doing doesn't warrant all those pages of questions and number crunching. "I just want a .03 radius all the way around the Detail" Surface finish contour DONE

Jay if I answer : "I would like to have one" Then I cannot answer any of the questions in the second set of choices and the poll errors out. "You did not provide valid information in the following fields: Answer for question 2".

I'll send it to you if your still interested.
