Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Mastercam post pro

The output method [parallel or serial port] is controlled by the controller
software not Mastercam's Gcode generation [as I understand it anyway.]
Though you bring up some thing I've puzzled over.
Tool changes.
I've run Gcode generated by Mastercam in TurboCNC [simulation mode] and have
not been asked for tool changes. The job contained 10 different operations
with 7 tools -- so I'd expect that many tool changes.
Anyone know what I'm over looking?
Thanks in advance.
owen
