I have just uploaded some of the Files from the old yahoo group, I have many more to do as and when needed.Marcus Emco 2.8CAD files More All Messages By This Member displayLikeStats(\"/g/Emco5CNClathe\", 0, 168145789, false) J Kajula $('#timedispmsg168145987').replaceWith(DisplayShortTime(1593123679144514003, false)); #90 Thanks, I will try that out some time when I can get into it. May I ask, why aren't you using that software, seems to me that it would be of more use than MFI.

For larger more intricate programs up to the maximum 210 lines of code I use the RS232 facility to transfer from computer to lathe.I believe that CAD/CAM is an excellent way to produce parts but to gain the full benefit from such a method it is necessary to refit the machine with modern steppers and controllers, or at least follow the guide written by Peter Kaiser using IC's to control the existing stepper controllers and motors, needs Linux or Mach to operate the system.Perhaps you will pass on your experiences using the software, i'm sure it will be of interest.Marcus More All Messages By This Member displayLikeStats(\"/g/Emco5CNClathe\", 0, 168147212, false) J Kajula $('#timedispmsg168148239').replaceWith(DisplayShortTime(1593126980461567932, false)); #92 I'm under the impression that Henk stopped developing the MFI after starting to use the Emco cadcam himself, I may be wrong but I saw a post on the other Emco group from like 2013 where Henk was also writing about the Emco cadcam. Thanks for the info.

It will be dedicated to running the Emco program if I get it working. I guess we'll see in a few weeks. I'm not a computer nerd by any means and never fiddled around with so old software or computer hardware but I'm hoping the best.

I would not trust tool offsets without checking.Mfi says it will import file from 5cnc.I use a win xp notebook pc (advent 4213 10.2 inch) with a usb to rs232 converter running MFI to load programs to c5.John More All Messages By This Member displayLikeStats(\"/g/Emco5CNClathe\", 0, 168659089, false) J Kajula $('#timedispmsg169961169').replaceWith(DisplayShortTime(1596130206640579160, false)); #136 I have now installed windows 98 to the pc I intend to use for this purpose, installed the Emco program and modified autoexec.bat and msdos.sys so that when I power the pc up it goes straight to the emco program and the directory is changed to the emco folder. The \"demo version\" text that some users reported didn't show up on the top of the screen. When I quit the program and type win+enter, win98 will boot up and I have USB support for the possible need of file transfer. The program will need a bit getting used to as it doesn't use mouse and is quite a bit different than the modern cad programs. You can make new tools to the library and edit old ones with the \"editool\" program if I understood correctly. I think this is the most powerful tool available for this machine if it doesn't work with linuxcnc straight as it's possible with the 5pc.

The feeling when it just works the first time is amazing, especially when I needed to try 3 times to get the cable right and this is my very first cnc machine experience. (I am all comfy with manual ofc) I have to say, this really is the best software available for the Emco as you can just draw shit and it throws out your code, a lot less involved and even at first much quicker process than inserting every line of code by hand. I am probably going to try cutting some steel next week, let's see.

I mostly followed the the guide that was with the files but it may help someone out.

It can be opened without either of those but some things wouldn't work and it will say \"demo version\" in the top of the screen. I found also that the menu only works when accessed through the m.bat batch file, not by typing menu and enter. From the menu you can choose the tools editor or programming program. It's almost mind blowing that a software that is about the same file size as a photo taken by a phone camera has so many features and needs a manual of 50+ pages to cover everything.

Problem is it only understood the points and drew straight lines where I put arcs in CAD. Fortunately the Emco CAD isn't too difficult to use and I will be sticking to that and so should everyone else The hotkeys really do make it easy. Also changed my computer setup to a Compaq Contura Aero 4/33 that is a 486 based minilaptop from early 1990's that has serial port and it worked just fine and will eliminate the messy cable hell compared to desktop. And I can carry it home easily and do the programming outside the garage which is quite nice. The thing is actually half smaller and lighter than my 2019 Asus. One thing remains a mystery to me, should I be able to jog the CNC version from the laptop arrow buttons and run the program from the laptop like on 5pc And if it is possible, how should I configure the lathe More All Messages By This Member displayLikeStats(\"/g/Emco5CNClathe\", 0, 175534813, false) J Kajula $('#timedispmsg175568648').replaceWith(DisplayShortTime(1605470688016650340, false)); #243 -5-CNC/Emco-Compact-5-CN
