That's the job file it loaded. What is the name you gave in the bottom field?....Be sure to hit BROWSE, then type in the name of the file you wish to create. I attached a screenshot of what it should look like prior to hitting \"OK\".

This place is your best bet for questions. Keep in mind that you can also call in for support. Have you considered coming in for training? It would definately get you up and going quickly.

Invalid Filename

Not knowing what edition of the workbook you are referring to, I can't tell you what page to reference, but that page is title \"CNC Output\" and is about 20 pages from the end of the book.

eCabinet Systems usings Microsoft file naming conventions, so you can not use special symbols, such as \", ', or /. Those are probably the most common naming errors.

Select the button at the bottom of the CNC Output screen that is labeled \"Browse\". You need to select and the address of where you want the file to go and the file name. If you are sending this to a Thermwood CNC and are connected via a network then your file can go straight to a folder at the machine and would be ready for the operator to load.

As Jody indicated you can address these questions directly by calling our support personnel.


Thanks,
