I purchased a used Bengal flow waterjet for my students to use , set up , can run in manual (pump on , high pressure) can cut in manual jog , there are lots of parts in the system from previous owner, just can't figure out how to get it to cut a part , I run cnc plasma cam , fadal cnc machine center, it preview cut , show the path it will take , pump will start (low pressure ) just cant figure how to get it to start the actual cut on a drawn part. Thanks

You prolly need a post processor in the same machine language as your new Jet. The G and M codes ( for example ) are most likely different for each control.

Just a thought.
