Mach 2/3 post problems

Post by planeflier »

I am having problems trying to post a cut file. When I select Mach2/3 (inch) txt the code puts a G21 into the header of the code which turns on metric(it should be G20.) I have tried using the metric one to see if it cuts inch, but does not.

Is there a way to fix this? :roll:

Hello Rich,

The Mach2/3 Inch postp in VCPro 3.0 is broken and will be fixed in the next release.

In the mean time you can either,

Use the Mach2/3 ATC (inch) (*.txt) postp available from the
pull-down list on the Save Toolpath form.

Or,

Download the attached postp file and copy this into the folder,

C:\Program Files\VCarve Pro 3.0\PostP

Replacing the original

Sorry for any inconvenience caused by this and let us know if you need further assistance.

Tony
