MIND YOUR "I's" "J's" and "K's"

OK i need some help "tweeking" my post. It will not force "X" "Y" "I" "J" in the same line if the values do not change from previous line or have a zero value. My machine will not run without all the values. It is very time consuming (not to mention agrivating) manually writing them in. Any help would be GREAT!

 

thanks

Do you have the asterisks on them like below?

 

 

parc #Select the arc output

if arcoutput$ = zero | full_arc_flg$ | arc_pitch$,

[

#Arc output for IJK

# If you do NOT want to force out the I,J,K values,

# remove the "*" asterisks on the *i, *j, *k 's below...

if plane$ = zero, *i$, *j$, k$ #XY plane code - G17

if plane$ = one, i$, *j$, *k$ #YZ plane code - G19

if plane$ = two, *i$, j$, *k$ #XZ plane code - G18

]

crazy,

I have no problem with the post editing, i pretty much wrote this one although it took alot of trial and error.... I'll give you a little back ground. (5 axis router) When i started here they had two post neither of which work correctly. So i created a new one using bits and pieces from each to achieve my desired result. Now I have switched to a new computer, for what ever reason when i transfered the post the output has changed. I cannot decipher where it forces "xout" "yout" "iout" "jout" under "pcirout" in the post

pcirout       #Output to NC of circular interpolation                                

pbld, n, sgplane, sgcode, pwcs, pccdia, pxout, pyout, pzout, pcout, parc,

pfr, pcan1, e

code:

pcirout       #Output to NC of circular interpolation
