I have downloaded different versions of mach2 and they all have
different response. Load mac2 c-2 and I can generate g code from
dfx file and get a tool path but the dro's dont work, down load mach2
1.0 and the dro's work and generates g code but no tool path
It seems that feed rate has something to do with not getting
tool path as If I edit lines pertaining to feed rate
I can get a tool path but it does not run properly. I can generate
a g code using a different program with the same dfx file then
export it to mach2 1.0 and I get a tool path and it almost runs
properly but not quite. I generate my dfx files from corel 9.

I would like to convert my dfx file with mach2, push a button and
tell my plasma cutter to cut, is this going to be possible. Do I
have bad downloads, am I downloading the wrong trial version,are
there some settings to be made, What do I do. Also would like to
know how to set dwell time or pause rate for plasma cutter. Thought
I could use dwell time for spindle as it is set up nice but looks as
though the spindle does not turn on and off for each cut.

Hi:

I would like to convert my dfx file with mach2, push a button and

I don't know why the different responces on each version, this doesn't
normally happen, but to get the spindle to turn on and off for each cut,
check the "plasma mode" button on the DXF screen import. It will generate a
spindle on at the start of each cut and a spindle off at the end before
moving.

I suspect that its a matter of settings. Sometimes, reinstalling a new
version wipes out any settings you might have made. You can stop that from
occuring, by saving the Mach2Mill.xml file when your done setting up. After
installing a new version, copy that file back into the Mach2 folder and your
settings will revert back to your settings.

DXF's can be tricky across different programs, so usually its a matter of
trial and error until you get a sequence down pat. The DXF's should import
unless they are defectiove in some way.

Good luck,
