Would you mind sharing that info with the forum. The main reason I ask is, I convert these pages to PDF and save them in case I have to look back to refresh my memory or to help someone else out.

Thanx

Sure Keith,

 

In the ptlchg_com area I changed this

if output_z = yes$,

 

to this

if output_z = yes$ & rpd_typ$ <>7,

 

that was to avoid extra min & max depth comments at every tool insp. point

 

Also in the ptlchg_com postblock I found where the stock left postblock call was, then put this around it

if rpd_typ$ <> 7,

[

pstock

]

to eliminate that from being posted at tool insp. points

 

In the pwcs postblock I changed this line

if workofs$ <> prv_workofs$ | (force_wcs & toolchng) | sav_mi7<>0 | sof,

 

to this

 

if workofs$ <> prv_workofs$ | (force_wcs & toolchng) | sav_mi7<>0 | sof | rpd_typ$ = 7,

 

to ensure my G54 gets put into the restart

 

I added this postblock to the "motion nc output" area

 

ptool_insp #Tool inspection point

pbld, n$, *sm00, e$

pbld, " ", e$

pbld, " ", e$

pbld, n$, "CHECK TOOL", e$

ptlchg_com

if coolant$, prv_coolant$ = c9k

 

At the end of the prapidout postblock I added this

 

if rpd_typ$ = 7, ptool_insp #Tool inspection point

 

 

I haven't played much with it, but it does what I need for now

Are you using V9 coolant?

[K2csq7]

Acro, I couldn't tell you, I don't know the difference between X style and V9 style???

 

on the coolant tab i just pick "M08"

[Acro Engineering]

I would assume V9 then since it works fine on my end this way also.

 

I was hoping someone from InHouse might ring in and solve the issue?

Thanx Keith,

Months or years down the road this could help someone out when they do a search
