Parallel Operations settings
This page enables you to define the settings for Parallel operations.
Parallel operation dialog
When you choose the Run on Local computer option, the operation is calculated on your local computer.
When you choose the Run on Network computer option and specify the network computer name in the corresponding field, the operation is calculated on the network computer.
If you select the Always ask if Local or Network computer option in the Parallel operations dialog box, this dialog box will be displayed the next time you perform parallel calculation.
Default External simulation option
SolidCAM enables you to define the default simulation mode for the External simulation.
Use 2D/Turning simulation as default
When this option is chosen, the 2D (for Milling) or Turning (for Turning) simulation mode is used as default for each new External simulation session.
- Remember last simulation option
When this option is chosen, the simulation starts in the last used mode.
Target loading
This option enables you to set the mode of target model loading during the External simulation.
When you choose to load the target with CAM tolerance, the target model with the tolerance value defined for the CAM model will be loaded.
When you choose to load the target with CAD tolerance (fast loading/rough target), the target model with the tolerance value defined for the CAD model will be loaded.
When you choose Don't load the target, only the Stock model is loaded.
