Work Offset

[chowquoe^]

When creating a 4-axis program with 2 different work postitions (G54 - G55) I am getting this error message.

 

Is this something that I am doing wrong in the software? The code posts correctly, just a bit annoying to click ok the ok again.

 

Thanks in advance.

No problem it is just a friendly reminder that you are doing something you want to do. Join the list of thousands that thinks this sucks!!!

maybe don't assign the offset number to more then 1 view

This had me confused as well. The way we overcame it was to use the mpmaster post. We leave all of our work offsets set to -1 but we set Misc integer 9 to 1 which causes all operations to lock on to the first WCS.

This way you get for instance G54 throughout the entire program even on rotation moves but you won't get that annoying error each time you create a new toolpath.
