    The parameter file is a function of the software version.
    It is called the BMDCPRMS.SYS file.
    And such items as orient, tool change height, backlash, pitch error comp, spindle speeds, spindle gain, spindle encoder are machine specific.
    Usually it is easier to install the software and it creates a generic parameter file which then gets edited.
