New computer question

Post by cardin3 »

I just ordered one of your nuk computers configured for use with my acorn plasma cutter. Is there an easy foolproof way to transfer all the configuration settings for my current computer to the new one.
Thanks

If you are going from one version to the same, just copy /cnc? and all of its subdirectories. Then copy /intercon or /icn_lath depending what installation you are using. That will put you back where you left off.

If you are switching versions, then you'll need to follow the installation instructions.
Cheers,

I'm sure this new computer that I just received has the newest CNC plasma pro software on it I just want to configure it the same as my old software. As in Axis drives and all those settings.

You can select Ctrl-P in the wizard and create a PDF of the all the Wizard settings to reference.

The PC should have V5.3 installed. What version are you coming from?

It's worth updating to the 5.3 version of software.

Just snip each page of the Wizard or CTRL-P to create a PDF of your 5.06 Wizard settings and plug them into the new PC's CNC12 5.3 Wizard.
