software update

Post by rock4xfab »

Can I just download the newer sheetcam and transfer the license or do I need to edit my post processor for floating torch height also. what is the best procedure. FYI I lost all my Toolsets when the computer battery died. Im thinking I may have also lost the correct height setting in the post processor also. I do know what it was but what else is required to revup to a newer version

What version do you have? If you have TNG & want to update to the latest version, you can use the update option in the help menu. Your toolset should remain the same. If you edited your post, it should also remain. If you don't have TNG, I don't think your license will work with the newer version.

Yes I have TNG 2.06 Les sent me the last release that would work on XP. 6.1.28, the computer is not on the NET so I had to drop the new file on via flash drive.

Rock4Xfab nice looking hole cuts but I think you should work on the lead in/outs of the first image. Maybe change the type of cutting for the inside and outside offset plan.

The part was posted out as no offset. I was having an issue with some overlapping contours and Sheetcam was having a fit so I said fuck it just cut. I have since fixed the drawing and it cuts fine. Again this was starting up a machine I built over 14 yrs ago so I am dusting off grey matter and cobwebs remembering all the stuff.
