Exporting to dxf for cnc machine help

$

Hello.

 

I am trying to figure out how to get autocad2014 and our company's cnc machine to communicate.

The machine uses Solid Ultimate with Screen-to-machine software.

 

From what ive gathered, I can save my drawing as a R12, R13, R14 version dxf file, which is what is needed for the two programs to talk to each other. The problem is, when i save the dxf file, it saves paper space, not model space. Therefore, all that comes into the cnc program is a titleblock or whatever else I had on the page in paper space.

 

The cnc program doesnt pick up viewports either.

 

I need a way to save model space as dxf.

 

Can anyone help?
