force xy location for all hole locations in canned drill cycle- Haas

[Kduhn66]

I'm using a guhring drill/thread mill/chamfer tool and using the vardex thread mill program to generate the code for it. I did a drill operation for all the locations that need done. So it'll move to the xy location then go into incremental mode for the actual drilling and thread-milling. I want the post to put the x and y location in all the hole locations-not just x or y if only one is needed. Then i'll just copy and past the thread mill operation into each location.

 

 X0 Y0- want post to put x and y location in the canned drill cycle for all locations.

if you are using an mpmaster post

this switch will do what you are looking for

force_dpts  : no$   #Force XY output on all drilling lines including cycle call?

if not you could change pxout, pyout, to pfxout, pfyout, on the drill cycle call lines

pdrill$

ppeck$

etc

[Kduhn66]

Changing the pxout to pfxout only forces it to call out the location on the canned cycle callout line. not each individual location.

I'm not using the Mpmaster post- ill check to see if we have the force_dpts though. 

[ajmer]

ok you have to change it on the secondary callout sections aswell

pdrill_2$

ppeck_2$

etc

[Colin Gilchrist]

I've found that most "additional drill point cycles", all end up calling 'pdrill_2$' post block. So just change them to 'pfxout' and 'pfyout' there...

Whoop there it is. Thanks Colin. Made my day a whole lot easier for this program.
