    scriping is something if you don't understand is best left to mastercam if you give them a call I sure they will walk you though it

    V9 comes with a Centroid post MPM4.

    Try that.

    Did you install all the posts from your CD? If not re-insert the CD and install the posts. It will put the posts in the C:\Mcam9\Mill\Posts folder.

    The correct post is MPCENM4. This is what I use for my Centroid M400 control. I can email it to you if you would like.
