ERRORS WERE DETECTED DURING POSTING

[Kavinsky]

I have a problem whenever i post a program i get a message, errors were detected during posting. Machine runs programs fine with no problem its just that error message that keeps showing and i have no idea how to resolve it. If anyone is willing to take a look it would be awesome. Also i need to mention that the last guy that worked on this machine tweaked postprocessor for his convinience.

Have you tried asking your Mastercam dealer for help?

There should be some info about what error occurred in the error log pop-up after you post..

He attached the error log.  "The formula is attempting to divide by zero, , Calculation returned zero"

That post looks pretty old I think?

The machine is 2001 i think or so , the shop has newer ones, but still they use this old DMU 50 T for roughing out small parts. And yes i forgot to mention that I attached post and error log file, my mistake.

Are you trying to tap with a Drill?

That's how Ive gotten those errors

It's a post from 2001 V8! Heavily hacked.

@So not a GuruGuru machine is 2001,  postprocessor is probably older. We are using it on Mastercam 2018 right now if that helps. 

@Leon82 whatever tool path is used it gets the same error it doesn't matter if it contour,pocket or drilling. 

[So not a Guru]

There is some calculation being performed on every line, in the case of the error file you attached, from line 150 through line 288.

You could try commenting out the old "bug1$", "bug2$" & "bug4$" lines to see if they are the problem.

[Tim Johnson]

Line 150 is showing pitch = (1/peck1$). #tapping cucle 'J' word level on canned cycles. Does (1/peck1$) mean anything to you?

[Leon82]

J is a value for fanuc tapping cycle for retract RPM. 

 

I wonder if they're using that field box to set it

@Tim Johnson @Leon82

Now that you mentioned it , I do recall I need to erase "J" or "I" letter when posting boring or taping cycle, for that  cycle to work... Also if the the program starts from point X0 or Y0 as the first line of travel it wont post , so I need to watch out for starting position of the program and enter it manually.  Once again as I have said the machine is old as is the postprocessor but we still use it cause its functioning 100%, aside the problem with postprocessor sending error message. Thank you for taking interest in this problem of mine I do appreciate your help. 

P.S. Control unit is Heidenhain Millplus control.
