The ‘Operation’ input tab contains a toolpath-like structure, which it gets from one of two sources:

  • Original operation toolpath from Mastercam - a representation of the operation toolpath that you selected to open the Cutting Parameters Explorer (see the screenshot to the right).

  • Operation pop-up - the operation you selected within the Operation pop-up (see below).

Operation pop-up

Info

On clicking the ‘Operation’ input tab, a pop-up covers the Display Area (see below).

The pop-up contains a representation of the operation that was used to open the Cutting Parameters Explorer. In : in the Operation ‘Operation’ pop-up , you can change that operation to another.

How to change the selected operation

Within the Operation pop-up, take the following steps:

  1. Click on one of the operations in the pop-up.

    • The content of the Operation input tab changes immediately to the selected operation.

  2. Click on the image-20240610-121902.png button in the top-right of the pop-up.

    • The selected operation is automatically saved.

    • The Operation pop-up closes.

Info

Some of the operations listed in the operation pop-up are greyed out (and cannot be selected) because the operation:

  • Is not yet supported by the Cutting Parameters Explorer - a list, at the top of the Operation pop-up, displays the operations that are supported.

  • Is not suitable for the selected tool.
