Precix Metric Post

Post by Rarebyte »

Hello
I have a metric file to cut on my Precix router. Can I use the Precix Post Processor (inch) (*. GC) if I change the G70 command to G71 in the header of the code.

Example:
Precix Inch

%
G90 G70 G17 G40
M10

Can I change to

%
G90 G71 G17 G40
M10

Is this all I need to do to cut a metric V-Carve code or is there more to change internally. The V-Carve code was made from a metric dxf and all the tooling and material set ups were done in Metric. There just is no Precix metric post processor in the list when I output the files.

Thank you

Hello Rarebyte,

I have e-mailed you a metric version of the postp + notes on how to add this to your install.
