    Red face Xilog 3 Parametric Programming Offline Programming

    Hi,

    In the shop I work at we have a Morbidelli Author 600 and Xilog 3. We have BobCAD CAM trial version which currently generates basic G-Code for Xilog Plus Morbidelli Type of machine. Now this is the first time we want to create a program in BobCAD Cam to sent to this machine. How do we go about and create the G-Code and import into the Xilog 3 software. I have tried the .XXL format and the .CNC format with now luck. Is there a standard of G-Code writing which I do not know of?! I have program basic program directly in the Xilog 3 and know the conventions that they are require of the software to be read, however am I missing something?! Many thanks for any help provided.

    You should have a program to convert the .xxl files into .pgm files. I think it's called winXiso, but I'm not positive. I can't check until Monday when I go back to work.
