Trying to get work offset to come up with A0. at end of program.

[travisprimary]

I'm having trouble editing my post to give me a work offset call with a G90 A0. at the end of my program.

 

This is where I am trying to put it in my post:

 

peof$ #End of file for non-zero tool

pretract

comment$

if stagetool = 1 & stagetltype = 2, pbld, n$, *first_tool$, e$

n$, *sgcode, *sgabsinc, pwcs, "A0.", e$ <------- the line I have added.

n$, "M30", e$

 

Not sure what I'm doing wrong to get a output of G54, G55, etc.

 

This is what it is posting:

 

 

G0 Z1.1

M9

G91 G28 Z0. M5

G28 Y0.

G0 G90 A0.

M30

%

 

And this is what I want:

 

 

G0 Z1.1

M9

G91 G28 Z0. M5

G28 Y0.

G0 G90 G54(or whatever work offset program is using) A0.

M30

%

 

Thank you

change "pwcs" to "*pwcs" (add the asterisk before the pwcs). this forces the post to output.

In your post, change this:

 

pwcs

 

To this:

 

*g_wcs

pwcs is a postblock. I was unaware that a postblock could be forced?

So I tried the *pwcs and still didn't get a work offset code. I tried the *g_wcs and it works like I want it to but only for G54-G59, it puts in a G0 in place of a G154.xx.

 

Thank you for helping me out.

In that case, make your post look like this:

 

if g_wcs <> 0, n$, *sgcode, *sgabsinc, *g_wcs, "A0.", e$

else, n$, *sgcode, *sgabsinc, "G154", *p_wcs, "A0.", e$

Ok that works like I want it to.

 

Thank you again for your help.
