I'm new to code but not mastercam and need to know how to get my engraving code to work on an old haas vf-2. I really don't know what I'm doing here and need this code changed or explained to me so I know why it's not working. The error is "invalid gcode" and here's the code: % O0105 (AR15 ENGRAVING) (DATE=DD-MM-YY - 13-03-18 TIME=HH:MM - 14:35) (MCX FILE - D:\CAMPBELL ARMS\AR15\LOWER RECEIVER PART 1 CORRECT 2.MCAM) (NC FILE - E:\FOLDER4\SEND.TXT) (MATERIAL - ALUMINUM INCH - 7075) (T17|0.25 ENGRAVING BIT|H17|D17|TOOL DIA. - .25) N100 G20 N110 G0 G17 G40 G49 G80 G90 N120 T17 M6 N130 G0 G90 G54 X.568 Y-1.545 S6112 M3 N140 G43 H17 Z1.3505 N150 M8 N160 G47 P0 (CAM-00####) X2 Y2 I90 J0.5 R0.1 Z-0.001 F30 E10 N170 G0 Z1.3505 N180 M5 N190 G91 G28 Z0.

Hello my name is Quinten and I have a question about macros in MasterCAM. I have many parts that need serial numbers, however it is a pain in the butt to move around the numbers and then tool path it. Is there any way of making a macro that would serialize these parts and number them in order so that it wouldn't take me hours in programing? Example: I have 200 parts all of witch need a serial number. First one would start out at 001 and continue up from there (001,002,003,004...). Would there be a way to make a macro that would do this all for me? I hope this makes since. Thanks Quinten
