    Machine Definition setup

    I'm new to CNC and I'm trying to setup the machine definition in Mastercam X3 for a custom table that we've built.

    I can't seem to find any good reference of how exactly to set that up.

    the documentation is very vague. Are there any step by step instructionals and detailed explanations of how to set up custom machine properties?

    thanks

    Jimmy,
    I have a pdf file on creating a machine and control definition. It's great.
    I tried several times to insert the file into this reply but I receive an error
    every time.
    If you still need help send me an email and I will forward it to you or anyone
    else that would like it. If anyone knows why I can't insert file let me know, it's
    under thee 500kb file size limit.
