multi tap files

I have a Shark SD120 and I am starting to use the tiling in vectric desktop. I am tiling two sections in the y axis. I am using just one bit for the entire project and was wondering why I get 4 tap files. Two for T1 and two for T2. Do I have to run all four tap files on the cnc or just one for T1 and one for T2?
Thanks for the help.

Renee,
My first question...Have you worked with the tiling tutorial? https://www.vectric.com/support/tutoria ... ath-tiling
It's been a few years since my last tiling toolpath, but I remember only one toolpath per tile.
I'll go dig around in my old files and find out how I tiled.
