Luis,

You have to run the CAM processor feature of the Eagle software.
1. while in the board editor, use FILE, RUN drillcfg.ulp
2. select inch or millimeters
3. dialog will appear what drills you will need. you may edit.
4.press OK to save the drill rack Filename.drl extension base name the same
as your board works here.
5.from the board editor use, File, CAM Processor command
6. open aawstandard.cam file (on the CD-Rom) possibly available on the web.
at Eagle.
7. make sure the layers are on that you want to process.
8.Select the Drill Tab (Job section+drill) (output device +Exellion) (Rack +
.drl) (File = .exc)
9 Push the Process Job button.
Wa-La all done. the g code should be there with the .drl extension
