manual entry operation output

[pap]

what is the variable and line of code to make a "manual entry" operation output in a nc file ?

i get all theo ther ops to work but that one...

scomm$ would be the variable.

 

Look the your post there should be a manual entry section, that area will the handle the output, the format.

 

Should look something like this

code:

---

pcomment2       #Comment from manual entry

spaces$ = 0

scomm$ = ucase (scomm$)

#1005 - Comment option 1

#1006 - Comment option 2

#1007 - Define comment with output line

#1008 - Define NC parameter comment

#1026 - ?

if gcode$ = 1005, pbld, n$, pspc, scomm$

if gcode$ = 1006, pbld, n$, pspc, "(", scomm$, ")" #Comments

#if gcode = 1006, pbld, n, pspc, scomm #Codes

if gcode$ = 1007, "(", scomm$, ")"

if gcode$ = 1008, pbld, n$, pspc, "(", scomm$, ")"

if gcode$ = 1026, pbld, scomm$

if gcode$ <> 1007 & gcode$ <> 1026, e$

spaces$ = sav_spc

this kicks me everytime, (comments are special)

I want to put "flip part" on M00 line. is there anything that hasn't already been said on the subject that can make this any clearer?? it's killin' me! how do I get "manual entry" to look for "pcomment2"?

 

code:

---

  N1000 M00 ( )$

$

(---------------------------)$

(T1 ENDMILL, 1.06 DIA)$

( FLIP PART )$ <-----manual entry (needs to be w/M00

( FACE BOTTOM )$ <-----operation comment

(---------------------------)$

$

N1010 G90 G0 G55 X-4.792 Y-2.33 S2000 M3$

---

here's what I got.

 

code:

---

            n$, "M06",e$

n$, "G91 G30 P3 X0.0 Y0.0",e$

n$, "M00", pcomment2,e$

" ",e$

"(---------------------------)",e$

ptoolcomment,e$

comment$

"(---------------------------)",e$

" ",e$

]

Louie,

 

Why not just go with a canned text call? The format can be all done in the post and then you just pick when you want it to output.

not bad idea, tired of fighting to make work my way. I can be too hardheaded sometimes. (duh)

 

thanks, John

John,

 

I found this where you shared it last and was wondering where to put it. I can put cantext in

control def. and write it to the post and vise/versa but it won't post out. should I replace pcan with what is listed here?

 

code:

---

 pcant_out #Canned text - build the string or output

if cantext$ = one, [pbld, n$, sm00, e$

pbld, n$ "(CLEAN CHIPS)", e$

]

 

if cantext$ = two, [pbld, n$, sg00, "Z6.0", sm09, e$

pbld, n$, sg91, "G28", "Y0.", e$

pbld, n$, sm00,

pbld, n$, "(CHANGE CLAMPS)", e$

pbld, n$, sg00, *g_wcs, sg90, pfxout, pfyout,

*speed, sm03, e$

pbld, n$, sm08, e$

]

if cantext$ = three, [

pbld, n$, "M201", e$

]

 

if cantext$ = four, [

pbld, n$, "M200", e$

]
