Is there a library of generic machine post that a user can get a post from.

There are .opt file that come with pmill but they are 1k empty files.

I like the way PMpost edits the .pmopt files but it does not work inside pmill. Or I do not know how to get it to work inside pmill.

I just need to find a couple post for some new machines we have.

All the other cam systems we have come with all kinds of posts, that you can taylor to your needs.

Please help,

Matt

Hi,

You can also taylor your OPT files. If you go to Start->Programs->Delcam->Ductpost->Ductpost USer Guide You can read and taylor the OPT as you like.

If you find easier to taylor PMPOST (files are .pmopt) then when selecting the post in Powermill, select a file with a .pmopt extension.

Got it

Well I decided to redo my post PMPOST. Works well and the other guys can get in and change something on there own. I just built the new ones from scratch as you stated.

Thanks,

Matt

I figured out how to post using PMPOST.
But I'm getting error while using

PMPost 2.4.00 initialised
Too many parameters!
Too many parameters!

For testing only
