Machine properties
The properties of the chosen machine have one of two possible sources:
Original CAM Assist ‘Machine Properties’ (see the screenshot to the right) - the properties that were you used to generate the toolpath strategy shown in the Fusion Browser (see the screenshot to the right) .
Machine pop-up - you can replace the value for certain specific machine properties with those entered in the pop-up (see below).

The Machine pop-up contains the same machine properties that are available within CAM Assist The unit of measurement used in the pop-up can be changed via the ‘Session Settings’ cogwheel (see Cutting Parameters Layout).

Within the Machine pop-up, take the following steps:
Change the property value using either/both of the following methods:
Enter a value directly into the textbox.
Use the up-down control to increase-decrease the value by 1.
Click on any of the input tabs (do not click Close)
The new property values are automatically saved.
The Machine pop-up closes.

The up-down button increments/decrements by integers, so if the button is used, it will remove any decimal accuracy for the value being changed. |
