Need Help!- Help with BOSS cnc

[Kelly Miller]

Has anyone had any success posting to a V2E3 with mastercam? I know they are old, but it is what I have to work with right now. Any help would be appreciated

You can generate G code, from any cam software, to run on any machine, you just have to have the post processor, in the cam program set up, to suit the machine control you are using

In mastercam I have found the post processor for BOSS10 But it says it is genaric and may need to be changed. I have edited the post and set it for even parity 7 bits 1 stop bit handshaking software and I keep playing with the Baud rate even though it ought to run set at 4800. What I cant find is where to set it up to put the % in the header and the E at the end of program. I can do that when I send a post, but I know I shouldnt have to every time. As far as my communications go, I keep getting an error every time I try to send a post to the machine that says UART failure at port B. that is what really has me pulling out myhair!
