Fadal post question.

[R&C]

I am using the Generic fadal format 1 4x mill.mm07 post.

When I post a file it is leaving out the % in front of the program #.

what can I do so it post it with the %?

 

I know this is not a big deal but I thought I would ask anyhow.

add

 

"%", e$

 

in the pheader$ section of the post

In the generic I have for X7, you will see the % is commented out

 

pheader$         #Call before start of file                         
     if wcs_mode <> two, # Yes, read 'mi1' to set 'wcs_mode'
       [
       if mi1$ = zero | mi1$ = one,  # Get Work Coordinate System mode setting
         wcs_mode = mi1$   # 'G92' output modes w/ 'G28' retracts
       else, wcs_mode = two   # 'E' fixture offset mode
       ]
     else, wcs_mode = two # 'E' fixture offset mode
     subout$ = 0
     n$, *progno$, "(", sprogname$,")", e$
     extprg$ = 1
     subout$ = 3
     #"%", e$
     sav_spc = spaces$
     spaces$ = 0
     #*progno$, sopen_prn, sprogname$, sclose_prn, e$
     n$, sopen_prn, sspace, "CREATED ON ", month$, "-", day$, "-", year$, " AT ", ptime, sspace, sclose_prn, e$
     #n$, sopen_prn, sspace, "PROGRAM NAME - ", sprogname$, sclose_prn, e$

 

Just remove the # in front of the %

Thanks.

Is there such a thing as a book on ( post modifications)

There is a file called "MP Documentation Portfolio" that is supposed to have a lot of information in it. You have to get it from your reseller. I believe it is about $50. I haven't seen it yet but it is what others have recommended. This thread http://www.emastercam.com/board/index.php?showtopic=70429 is quite helpful.
