Exporting and importing user settings and templates
It is possible to export all user-specific files such as user, quality, templates, NC codes, jobs and automation templates as well as all saved settings and registered values. This data can then be re-imported to another computer.
Under the DCAMCUT tools there are the buttons Export user files... and Import user files... buttons. This allows you to transfer all settings and user templates from one computer or user to another computer or user.
Setting file is located in the user directory (dcamcut.default_values)
Therefore, settings are now also user-dependent (each user has their own settings)
Export ends up in documents (service set folder)
Structure:
C:\Users\ms\Documents\DCAM\DCAMCUT 9.0 -> dcamcut.default_values
All settings are saved here.
C:\Users\ms\Documents\DCAM\DCAMCUT 9.0\Support
All files required for export are stored here.
(These can be saved and stored separately)
Files stored in the Backup folder on C:\Users\ms\Desktop\File
When importing, specify the folder in which all files created during export are stored.
In this example, C:\Users\ms\Desktop\Folder\Backup
Procedure:
A file is open and wire cutting is activated. Machine is selected. There are templates for user qualities, user NC codes and other user-specific settings and templates.
Open the context menu on the 1st root node and select the Export user files... option under Tools.
The message Files created successfully appears.
Copy the displayed user files from the open Explorer and save them in a desired path.
Close the file and close DCAMCUT.
A new computer is set up with a fresh DCAMCUT installation. Or a new user is added to the current system.
Open a file either with or without editing. If necessary, activate wire cutting in this part.
Now open the context menu in the 1st root node again and select the Import user files... option under Tools.
The Explorer opens and asks you to specify the folder containing the user files.
Select the folder and confirm with OK. The message Files imported successfully appears.
Close DCAMCUT.
When reopening, the corresponding machine is opened and all user files such as templates, qualities and user NC codes as well as all registered values in dialogs have been transferred.
Additional document level for Mitsubishi Advance and DCUBES machines
When programming the machining process, the exact clamping situation of the workpiece on the machine is often not known. Programming is usually carried out for a clamping operation directly on the machine table.
The solution created enables the machine operator to react easily to a changed clamping situation, such as clamping on a bar, by changing the parameter value H400 in the NC program header.
There is no need to intervene via the programming system or directly at many points in the NC program.
This function is available for all machining operations with the exception of those that use additional axis.
Further developments and changes Seibu processors
All SEIBU's:
- Option of output as pure subroutine removed from machine dialogs
Output as main/subprogram for enabled machines:
- Subroutine termination changed to M02 instead of M99
Coordinate systems for all machines from MA series onwards:
- Extended to additional group G54 P1 - G54 P48
Machines with straightness compensation:
- The program level (J) for straightness compensation of 2D contours is set to the top edge of the workpiece, the height (I) is set correspondingly negative
Strategic M commands are provided with a corresponding comment.
Seibu with Smart NC
- Implement ELC function for last cut of carbide machining
STOP events implemented for all Seibu processors
