More probing questions

[AMCNitro]

G65 P9995 W54. A10. D1.275 E0. H0.

That's the code for probing an ID.

G65 P9995 W54. A11. D.788 E-0.3 H0.10

And that's the code for probing an OD(boss).

My question is, what does the A represent?

I looked on the Inspection Plus manual and there's nothing about P9995

[AMCNitro]

Its H0. I0.

G65P9995 is a MACRO somebody created or modified. You're going to need to contact whoever installed your probe and get the accurate documentation from them.

It almost looks like Easy Set, but EasySet is different.

If I were to make a W.A.G. I would say the following;

W = Work Offset

A = Cycle

D = Feature Size

E = Incremental Depth to measure the feature

H = back-off distance to avoid an internal/external obstruction

 

If you open the O9995 program there shoudl be line numbers corresponding with A. You'll probably see a GOTO#1. If you look through it you shoudl be able to figure out what the A's go to.

O9995 is Haas' master macro that populates/jumps to Renishaw's inspection plus macros. I only use this format when outputting from Haas' GUI for setup. Which the control does automatically into MDI. 

Anytime I add probing to a program I always use Renishaw's inspection plus macros. As you can add protected moves for clearances, link multiple measurement cycles, and not have the probe turn on/off for every measurement cycle.

The A variable selects the measurement cycle from Haas' macro to Inspection Plus.

It comes with Haas machines.

I program it at the machine and the cut and paste.  When you say that you use Renishaw Inspection plus, is that from Mastercam?

You left out the "Haas" detail. That's kinda important. 8-P

"Inspection Plus" is the O9810 Protected Move, O9811 Single Surface, etc... from machine tool MACRO software from Renishaw.

This is a link to the standard Easy-Set Manual - https://www.dropbox.com/s/gfpwfymag55n8fv/Renishaw%20-%20H-2000-6068-0C-A%20Renishaw%20EasySet%20Programming%20Manual.pdf?dl=0

 

Perhaps that can help you decipher the arguments.

Thank you! This will help even more!

Also, thank you to all that replied.
