[X3] Generic Haas VF-TR_Series 5X Mill Post

Is there to force the Post to just post only A90 without changing my machine definitions. I'm creating tool planes that are only A90 and when I post a batch of toolpaths that contain B0. to B180. the post likes to change it to a A-90. when there is a full rotation involved.

 

To just keep A at A90. I basically have to post my whole toolpath groups separately to keep A postive.

 

Thanks in advance.

[gcode]

[*]# mi4 - Start initial primary rotary axis bias

# +/-999 represents start as close to limit as possible

# 0 represents calculate without using bias

# Any other value represents an angle in degrees to attempt

# to position near.

# -999 = Low, 0 = Off/Default, 999 = Hi, Value = Angle bias

#

# mi5 - Start initial secondary rotary axis bias

# +/-999 represents start as close to limit as possible

# 0 represents calculate without using bias

# Any other value represents an angle in degrees to attempt

# to position near.

# -999 = Low, 0 = Off/Default, 999 = Hi, Value = Angle bias

#

I don't know whether A is concidered primary of

secondary in that post, but you can use

mi4 and mi5 to force rotary output.

Try setting mi4 to 0 and mi5 to 90

in all your operations and see what happens

You do this on the MISC page of each operation

and the Edit Common parameters function can be used to change your enirte program all at once..

 

I do have question.. are you using the same toolplane for all these operations??

In this part of the post is where this is controlled.

 

code:

---

 #Rotary axis travel limits, always in terms of normal angle output

#Set the absolute angles for axis travel on primary

pri_limlo$ : -9999

pri_limhi$ : 9999

#Set intermediate angle, in limits, for post to reposition machine

pri_intlo$ : -9999

pri_inthi$ : 9999

 

#Set the absolute angles for axis travel on secondary

sec_limlo$ : -120

sec_limhi$ : 120

#Set intermediate angle, in limits, for post to reposition machine

sec_intlo$ : -120

sec_inthi$ : 120

---

Here also.

 

code:

---

#Rotary axis limits

adj2sec : 1 #Attempt to adjust the primary axis from secondary?

#Allows primary axis to flip 180 to satisfy secondary

#0 = Off

#1 = Use method when secondary is out of limit

#Use with pri_limtyp = one to keep secondary as controlling

#limit when limit tripped

#Use with pri_limtyp = two to allow 180 degree reposition

---

Then I change #9 Iteger in the Misc Values to witch direction I want it to tilt +/-.

 

The post will alarm telling you when you are out of this range and not post anything after.

Thanks for all the replies. I will try what you both suggested.

 

gcode: No i'm using the same toolplane for all

Just the same WCS
