I tried one, but Master cam error for it being out of date.
Thank you, I'll try it.
The post won't update, error is that it isn't an MP post. Update aborted.
Anyone have a working post, thank you. Rod.
put up the top 10 lines of the post
X5 post should have a V14.00 on the 1st line
Your error is strange, any later post should go thru the c-hook
----unless it is a very, very early post ( ie V8 / V9).
These have to be updated with an earlier X series version, before using the X5 Updatepost.DLL
your top lines will tell me what version the post is from
Cannot your reseller help you ?
I work for a large company that has Mastercam, I was just trying to help a friend out with the Shopbot program. The Shopbot post is for V7.
There is the problem as to why it won't update...V7 (which is circa , 1998)
It would need to go thru a V9 update, then thru say an X2 version before passing thru to X5
Best to find a more current post, from available sites & customise to your requirements
- what control ?
- also give an example of NC code
Thank you, I'll try and get a newer post.. My friend makes Guitars, and runs Aspire software with Shopbot control, but he doesn't know how to program.
Are you running the 5axis Shopbot like this one. I did this one in X7 testing there post. most posts are locked if it is 5axis.
