Re: mirac dos and window98 era

you can copy the programm with external "dikette reader" from pc win7 and put it in w98 pc.
i do this and it work perfect.
denford mirac oct 1989 knew canned cycles (for exemple G71 G76 ) so you can use recent software correctly postprocessed with fanuc.

Re: fanuc with mirac

thank martin
the idea is to know if it's possible to adapt a post pro for featurecam, mastercam, etc to work with a mirac.
unfortunately, denford don't sell softs if you're not a school.
