I’ve done some searching and could not find a clear answer to this question.

Which Post Processor should I use with VCarve Pro V12.5 and my reliable old Nomad 883?

Will the post that I have been using with VCarve Pro V10.5 work with V12.5? (Carbide3d-Nomad-Inch.pp).

Thanks

I would suggest using a post-processor which uses metric and G2/G3 arcs (the arcs are less likely to have problems with the smaller unit).

You’ll also want support for tool changes using M6 commands which suit how Carbide Motion handles them.

Other than that, there aren’t any hard requirements.
