Hi All,
I have two laser systems - a GCC Mercury (635 x 458mm table) and an Epilog Helix (609.6 x 457.2) Both work great, but because different jobs have been saved to the different computers (both using X4) it's a pain to interchange the jobs/machines. A job saved on the Mercury system has to be rearranged to work on the Epilog and vice-versa.
Would some sort of a macro enable quick transfers between the machines? It would need to change paper size, relocate the zero/zero point, move the objects by the required amounts and also move guidelines by an appropriate amount.
I know nearly nothing about macros, but I'm hoping that some good-hearted soul (who is clearly also a genius) can point me in the right direction.
Regards, Bob
