    Need help getting this file to backplot

    This file is a program that runs on a horizontal mill. Can I get some tips on the settings I need to make it work in NCPlot as I can not get this file to plot at all.

    Hi,

    You'll need to delete or comment out the M2 at the top of the file, NCPlot recognizes this code as the end of program.. which is why you're not seeing anything plot. There's a setting you'll also want to change related to the subprograms in your file. Go to the menu Setup/Subprograms and change the M98 Handling and G65 Handling settings to "Ignore if sub not found". Otherwise NCPlot stops plotting at the first subprogram call that it can't locate the program for.

    Thanks,
    Scott
