Need help with changing G83 on lathe post.

[g-codeguy]

Some of our old posts didn't convert to X2 very well. Dealer set us up with new ones. Trouble is some are using G83 for drilling. I don't see a switch for it like I did for the canned thread, turn, face cycles. I did send an email to the dealer, but thought I would also check here. Depending on how busy they are I could hear back in a few minutes, or maybe tomorrow. Been a few hours.

 

I did get a work-around for the time being, but it isn't right. Had to hard code the G1 as it would only output a G0. Don't have enough post experience to find what else has to be changed.

 

thanks,

Dale

you do or dont want the G83?

Do not want the G83. G1. I do need to get a custom drill cycle made for the Hardinge deep drilling subprogram.

So you want it to put out the g65 p9136 for the deep drill macro?
