Cannot recognize this newer or incompatible PCM format

Post by LNWelding »

I am so new to this and need some help! I recently downloaded a couple of files to my computer from this website and I keep getting this message when I try and open them..

"Cannot recognize this newer or incompatible PCM format"

Can anyone help?
Thanks
Samantha

Hi Samantha,

The PCM files are for plasmacam tables, if you use one of those tables you should be able to see the file. If not just ask the person who posted the file up if he/she can convert them over to DXF, most everybody have no problem doing that for us non plasmacam users.
