Copy post text to the new control definition (if necessary)

Next, you need to copy the post text from the original control definition to the new control definition. You only need to do this if you did a Save As earlier and renamed the new .control file on the network. If you kept the same name, skip ahead to Deleting the original control definition.

  1. Go to the Text page.
  2. Right-click in any data cell and choose Import, All sheets, From post.
  3. Select the post that contains the original post text. This can be either the network copy or the local copy.
  4. Mastercam will display the names of all the control definitions to which the post has been added. Select the name of your original control definition and click OK.
  5. Save the control definition.
