PathPilot Hub

[popspipes]

I am trying out the HUB in PP and I havent figured out how to get one of my files uploaded to it.

I do not use Fusion 360, I use sprutcam and I would like to upload one of my files to the hub to check out what it does and how it works etc., I cant figure out how to upload a file to it from my windows computer that I use for cad/cam.

any help or insight would be appreciated!
thanks

Thank you sir!

I did finally figure it out, i cant get the file to run yet though, exceeds the Xaxis limit, I need to figure out how to set center of the part without using the probe, other than that I think it will run OK.

Home PP and set the X/Y/Z coordinates to an appropriate location using the coordinate display/input boxes. It is just like a real machine!

I did set the coordinates but not close enough I guess, the part is as long as the table almost, the fixture is marked off for the vise so I am close enough, then probe to get my zeros. I just didnt have much time to devote to it today (65*f) spent most of the day grinding up leaves and burning sticks.

You can enlarge the work area slightly with the ADMIN SET_X_LIMIT and ADMIN SET_Y_LIMIT commands.

Thanks, I hadnt thought of that. The part is actual length 16.6" long, so over 17 actual travel with a .25 cutter, My table travel is over 19" actual travel so that may be why I was having trouble setting the X zero.
