Indexer help , converting Y to B

[steve]

Need some help converting flat files to round files for indexer. I think I know what needs to happen , not sure how to do it , or if there is a converter for this in the control software?
I have a PRS Alpha , and control software is 3.5.8

I should add , I have part works and artcam for design software.

Randy Nelson made this utility. I haven't tried it yet but i think it is just what you need. If it is send him a "Thank you"!!

Stephen,

ArtCam also makes a postprocessor which is supposed to output to the indexer (have not tried it yet). You may already have it - it is called Shopbot_IndexerY.CON and is accessible when you save your toolpath. I received this from Brady awhile back. If you need it I can forward it on.

Thanks for the reference Jack hope it works for you!

Thanks Jack ,
Thanks Randy , I've down loaded your utility , haven't had a chance to work with it yet. I do have some post processors with artcam that out put an indexer file , again haven't had a chance to try them. I think these should do the trick.
