General Mach Discussion / Re: Anybody use Galaad to control Mach?

However, if we can use Galaad on the machine to set up the tool paths, we can then send the file directly to Mach for the machining. It should be as simple as pushing a button. Should be......

If this was to work then you would be sending a GCode file to Mach but you say that Galaad will not export just the GCode

Sorry,
Martin's excellent site has grown and perhaps become a bit convolute - this would perhaps have been a better link  http://engraving.majosoft.com/index.html?menunr=3&sub=4&lnk=

Hi Graham,

Welcome to the forum.

The sequence; open Mach, click File, click LazyCam should work OK - it opens OK for me using Mach R3.042.022.

Hi Russ,

What are you requiring Mach to do from SignLab ??

If it is just cutting vinyl then the Roland or Graphtec HPGL can be converted using LazyCam.
I usually convert HPGL using 'Target2GCode' which can be downloaded free from the Majosoft website  http://majosoft.com/
