Operation order in Robotmaster does not match Mastercam

Problem

The operations in Robotmaster are not in the proper order and the robot goes back home in between operation.

Explanation

This occurs when the operations in Mastercam have different NC file names. When this is the case, Robotmaster will group operations that have the same NC names and treat them as independent programs.

In the following example you can see that in Mastercam, operations 1 and 5 are named AAA, operations 2 and 4 are named BBB and operation 3 is named CCC.
In Robotmaster, the operations will be grouped by NC name in alphabetical order.

Solution

Modify the NC name according to the operation order that you want to have in Robotmaster.

If you want Robotmaster to follow the Mastercam operation order, set all the operations with the same NC name:
