Title: How can I make the zero in lazy Cam
Post by: pedroesteves.biosurfit on November 12, 2009, 08:11:39 AM

How can I put the (o,o) in the origin in lazyCam?

In some cases,i  go to CaD files and put  Zero Piece in the origin,but some files i can´t open in cad,only in lazy cam.


Can someone please tell me,what i´m doing wrong?



One other question,i´m making offsets ,but in the lazycam Preview i get lot of lines,and i don´t know if is right or not:

pedro........
Have a look at the Lazycam Manual as it covers what you are asking.
See Sections 6.2.3, also Shift DRW tool, you can also just drag the origin to a location.

What kind of files can't you open in Cad?
What Cad prgram are you using?

Offsets are covered in the manaul, how to do, etc. Go through the tutorials and at the very least #1.

Don't hack you way through the program, far better to spend some time with just a read of the manual.

I don´t have the Lazycam Manual,i´ll see in the tutorials and in help topics.

I´m using Autocad2007,and i can´t open a DXF file created by a cnc desk.
But i open the file in the lazycam,but i can´t open in autocad 2007.

Thanks anyway for the help.

Can i see the tutorial´s  in the net?

Don't know what version ,or kind for that matter ,of DXF Desckcnc saves .
Also note that Deskcnc has some different intrepretaions of Gcode than Mach, so just a heads up.
