Capturing thread parameters

Hi guys, I am trying to locate parameter information (included angle) for a lathe thread cycle G76.

 

The NCI LTHREAD parameter for Included Angle says #10440 in the book

 

I am trying to retreive from:

pparameter$ #Information from parameters

if prmcode$ = 10440, anginc = rpar(sparameter$,1)

 

and place "anginc" in the G76 section:

 

pg76new #G76 threading new style

pparameter$

pbld, n$, *anginc, *thdlast$, *thdfinish$, e$

 

But I cant get it to work! Am I doing the right thing or should I read from a Parameter information lookup table?

 

Thanks in advance,

Bob

Have you formatted anginc to the output you are looking to see?

 

Something like

 

fmt A 2 anginc

 

alto the was a thread just a couple of day sago that dealt with this, WCS name output, if you do a search you should find it, that might help you a bit too.
