Referring to a NC tools file from your NC export template

|

In order to have a more transparent custom NC tools configuration, interiorCAD 3.5 requires that every NC template refers to its own, unique NC tools file instead of supplying a default NC tools file - the latter causing quite some grief for both customer & support figuring out what tools file was used.

VectorWOP customers are asked to port their CAM template file as follows:

  • Copy your template file from interiorCAD 3.0 to 3.5 (as found in the folder »XG Resources/NC Export/«)
  • Open the file in a text editor. If it does not yet contain a reference to a tools file (WERKZEUGE:...), copy over the file »XG Resourcen/NC WerkzeugNr.txt« from interiorCAD 3.0 to »XG Resourcen/NC Export/Tools/MyTools.txt« of your interiorCAD 3.5 installation.
  • Now referring to this tools file is simple. Just add the line WERKZEUGE:MyTools.txt at the beginning of your template file.
  • MyTools.txt needs to be located in the folder »XG Resources/NC Export/Tools/«. Other paths are not supported.
  • If you have any problems, please ask interiorCAD support to help you out with upgrading the template.
