    How to export g-code

    I thought the MCX was supposed to provide g-code. How do I do this? I have a generic 2D piece I made and I want to export the code to TurboCNC for cutting. What do I need to do? Thanks for any help or ideas

    Run it thru a post processor. They come with Mastercam.

    Find the post for your controller (TurboCNC?) and run it via the POST button in the ops manager.
