post ?

[HEAVY METAL]

WE HAVE A DYNAPATH CONTROL WITH A SMV ROTARY TABLE THE CONTROL READS 3 PLACES AFTER THE DECIMAL.I HAVE CHANGED THE POST SETTING TO .001 #Degrees for each index step with indexing spindle BUT I STILL GET THIS ERROR "WARNING-INDEX ANGLE DOES NOT MATCH POST SETTING ('ctable')" MY ROTATION IN MC IS 47.5 .THE ORGINAL POST SETTING WAS .1 .MC WOULD POST PROGRAM WITHOUT ERROR BUT ROUND UP THE INDEX POSITION T0 48. IS THERE ANOTHER PLACE IN POST TO TWEAK ROTARY SETTINGS?

 

THANKS IN ADVANCE

Sounds like the post is set up to use indexing rather than a full rotary. In my experience, you're best to leave it as a full rotary rotary for small indexing resolutions like .001, even if you can't do a simultaneous 4-Axis move.

 

index : 0 #Use index positioning, 0 = Full Rotary, 1 = Index only
