You mean Kannon loaded X2 and then just left it to you to figure out?

I will get it fixed tommorrow.

sure is nice to start relating again to the questions being asked on the forum...

 

Version 9 questions were becoming few and far between.

BTW,

 

The is a very nice post available for the MITS EDMs by the name of ->

Mitsubishi FA-Series 4X Wire.pst

 

You should be able to get it from the (separate) Post Process install or your Reseller can obtain it for you.

 

If you get/have this PST be sure to open it up and look inside for the -

*** Be sure to check the 'User Preference Settings' section of this post! ***

This PST has many easy to set option switches to configure the output format.

got a question..

 

the guys run a main with the offset values then call up the subs...which is the geometry same as first pass just different offset amount.

 

They tweak it at the machine with series of different offsets.

 

Is there a way when you post a file with skims for it to output the H offset value also when doing comp at the control? So they can tweak it at the machine?

I need H1=.0098 example..

[Kannon]

Thanks Roger..

 

reseller is sending it...

[ToolMan184]

Kannon,

You talking about at the beginning of the program to have:

H1=.0098

H2=.008

H3=.006

H4=.0052

 

If so, yes this can be done.

[Kannon]

Yes Toolman..

 

thats what I needed and the post that Roger was talkin about gave me exactly what I needed the 1st time I posted working great with subs..

 

I think I could drop a tear...

We didnt have much memory in the machines so we always ran subs.. the main carried the offsets and values...

 

now it comes out perfect.

 

Thanks..

[ToolMan184]

Thats good Kannon, I was going to send you the parts of the post that Roger had fixed for me to do this. But, I guess you have what you need. If you have Wire questions, Roger is the GURU on it for sure.

[Kannon]

I appreciate your offer Toolman...you guys are the best.

[Paul Decelles]

Wait a minute.... Are you saying that we don't suck?!?

[Kannon]

I have been using 9 for a looooooooong time watchin everyone else go thru the updates..finally we are there and I must say after 2 days...

 

I dont think I am going to even open version 9 again.

The posts hit right on for me.. the Haas and the FA mits wasnt altered at all for us and they were better then what we had before.

 

I know there are always issues... but from what I see...its amazing the improvements..

Thanks to all.. including the forum for their help in the transition.

 

for the record.. I am NOT a Beta tester so this is one who is not a fan boi giving a compliment.
