Old habits are hard to die. As one customer remarked: “You can come and change everything in my shop as long as you don’t change anything”! To keep changes to a minimum use the TWig method to set up for new jobs. If you want to try the FAUST methods setup, take the G-Code of a small machined part and have the wizard translate it into the Tool Wall format. Your original code is only copied and not altered! Tool Wall gives you a lot of options to adapt for your unique operation.

Warning: When you edit the TWig set-up sheet, you must edit your G-Code as well! Create a job & and sub-program O001 name. The -1 and the date is automatically assigned. Structure the sub- programs in Machining Order. The O001 is the first side to machine - and so on.

Frequently asked Questions to Job Control: Which set-up method is best for me: Generally you should use the TWig method. What are the changes I have to make to use the TWig method: All you have to do is to transfer your existing set-up-sheet into an e-set-up-sheet. A wizard for it is provided in Tool Wall. What happens to my G-Code: Nothing. The code can be located in the same folder you have it now and used the same way. What does the e-set-up-sheet do: It scans and places the tools with the offsets into the correct locations for the related G-Code file.
