Thank you for your response. Wouldn't the interupt apply to both directions. It skips forward fast but not backward. Or are they sepparate. Thank you for the...
It's not the keyboard. It is the rather inefficient method used to scroll forward and back. A faster PC might help. I've had some long programs take 2...
I think you have hit the nail on the head. It could take many minutes to go back in on a helical mill program. Apparently you have done it. The fact is...
Oh , forgot to mention , it is best to format the hard drive and install a new Win 98 to get rid of all the stuff that has built up on the computer over the...

Jeff, I don't believe cnc pro supports using "R" parameters for circular inerpolation. I had to use I and J values. http://www.nfrpartners.com/nfrg2g3.htm ...
My old computer crashed and I reinstalled cnc pro on a newer computer. Intel celron processor with windows 2000 professional. Won't run. Need help with this...
Larry, Seems like Win 95 or 98 were recommended and the newer Windows versions had issues or work arounds to enable running CNCPro. If it were me, I'd stay...
