    Unhappy trying to get bob-cad to talk to milltronics 1D

    Can anyone tell me how to get my milltronics 1D to read the posts from
    Bob-cad.I can post and save to a floppy but when I put the floppy I the
    mill it tells me there is nothing to read error 302 .I know that bob-cad files are .NC not sure what milltronics files are.



    thanks

    Our Surfcam generates a .ncc file and works fine. Not sure if .NC is a valid file format with Milltronics. 302 error means the disk is not recognized or not formatted. I’ve seen this error before and replaced the disk with a new one and worked fine. Try another disk or change the file extension to .ncc.

    full dos file names

    you would also need full dos filenames turned on for the control to read a file that isn't in the OXXXX name format

    Smile file extension

    thanks guys for the input. I did find the issue.You can't have a file extension
    with this machine. I left the file extension window blank in bobcad and the
    machine worked fine.The weird thing is that my laptop with the milltronics
    program on it would read it with .NC in the file extension window. It would
    even verify it. Thats what through me off.I couldn't figure out why the laptop
    would read it but the machine wouldn't

    thanks
