The configuration parameters for a spindle are defined in the spindle type file accompanying the spindle.
From version 7.5.0 PowerMACS uses the same version of these files as ToolsTalk Service does
(extension .TTT, instead of .TTS).
These latest version of these files are installed in the folder "SpindleType" which is located in the folder
that TTPM was installed to (normally "C:\ PM4000 7.4.2"). By default this folder only contains files for QST
spindles. The files corresponding to QMR and QMX spindles are located in subfolders named "QMR" and
"QMX" respectively and must be copied to the "SpindleType" folder before they can be seen and used by
TTPM.
TTPM will refuse to convert an old setup to version 7.4.2 unless it can find the spindle type files of all used
spindles of QMR and QMX type.
