Post Processor question?

[Red Earth]

Greetings!

I recently made the BLIND jump into the CNC world. I am going to apologize ahead of time for some stupid questions.

Still waiting on the delivery of the table, but received some of the software.

When installing V21 and Bob Art....The post processors CD asks if I want to install all or just a selection of them. For now, the table will be used with a plasma cutter and router, mostly in 2d. I have yet to figure out what they are let alone which one I will need!

I found it a little odd the training CD's are so redundent on how to save, rename, or open files (computer 101) and omits other usefull explanations.

Getting started with new software, especially one with a large learning curve, is always a little unnerving.

Thanks in advance for the help,

Phil

Welcome to the Bobcad forum here on the zone
You only need to install the post for the controller you are using
