My Bridgeport mill x and y tables can be moved via MDI commands and now i am ready to down load G code written in Mouse Pad. Not clear on how to save g code program so it can be run by AXIS. I have been unable to find detailed information on how to do this. All attempts to open a saved g code result in a notice that the g code cannot be opened. Thanks

How are you saving the file. I you save as somefile.txt or .ngc -it should be ok.

Also gcode needs to have % sign at the beginning and end.
