We have a Fagor 8055m. We currently run BobCad v.17 and are upgrading to v.21. In order for our cnc to read and function, we have to save three file types with file estensions *tap, *cnc, and *pim.
When we try to save these files in v.21, the cnc cannot read them. I am new at everything and I am the desiganted problem solver and I am in great need of help. Can someone shed some light as to what I need to do or where to begin.

The program needs the file extension: PIM
The first line in the program should be: %Name,MX
For the program to be saved in the machine the name needs to be a number: 123456.PIM
