renaming nci names


Recommended Posts

  • 2 weeks later...

I do all my operations seperate. Each tool has it's own operation. The operation group name for T1 would be O1001. The operation group name for T2 would be O1002. I need this chook to set the nci to the group name and the prog# as the same. Everytime I pick all operations it does not do it right. It will make all prog#'s on all operations O1001 and the nci will be like O1001 on the first operation and the second operation the nci will be O1001. It is not naming the nci the same as the group name. This is when I pick all operation at the same time. It also will not alow me to do one at a time, it keeps changing the other one's that I have already changed. I really like this chook. If I am doing something wrong please help.

James,

This is how we do it also. Hooray we aren't the only ones. Only select the first operation in each group. This way you end up with a list of tools in the order that they are used.

 

As for the nci names, tick the "grouped" box and add the O to the nci name field. Put 1001 in the sequence start and 1 in seq inc and if you select your ops as above, you will get what you are asking for.

 

If you put an excel template in your chooks folder you can really tweak what info you want.
