problems?

[steveo]

I have 2 problems with mcx. I can't use manual entry in mcx lathe 1. It kicks me out of the program and gives me a fatal error. I have to be able to enter instructions for the operators. In mcx mill 1 I'm missing part of my ribbon bar. The whole right end is missing. I don"t have the check and ? mark on the end. I'm a 9.1 user getting my butt kicked by 10

What Bret1 said and make sure you have updated drivers for Graphics interface as well as standard windows patches. You may also want to make sure Mastercam X supports your Garphics Card. There have been a few problems the past like this do to the Graphics card. If you do a search in the Mastercam Forum here in cnczone you will find a lot of information on what to use and why things like this are happening. I'm not a MC user, but have found some very interesting reading material here.

Above all you should contact your Mastercam dealer. He/she may have some helpful information for you as well.

Good Luck and I hope this helps, if even a little.

I am assuming that you are cncps on the Mastercam Fourm. If you are Im sure you will find an awnser there to your problem.
Ive been keeping an eye on that thread myself cause I also ran into the same manual entry problem.

mastercam X wants the min of 1024 X 768 resalution. I do sugest higher if the monitor supports this.
this will fix your issue .
What are you using for a monitor if I may ask?
