"Stepcraft UCCNC ATC Arcs(mm)(*.txt)" is a tool change post processor.

If you're not using a Stepcraft machine you'd need to make sure that the macro definitions used in the tool change sequences are programmed in the same way with your UCCNC version. I'm not familiar with that system to know if it would be an issue or not.
