WTF Happened here

[Mic6]

I've been programming and posting ALL day today many times, no problems. I started a new file today and my code looks like this:

 

 

code:

---

G0 G17 G40 G49 G80 G90

G91 G28 Z0 / G91 G28 Z0. <-----added duplicate code and a block delete

/ G28 X0. Y0. <-----block delete just showed up

/ G92 X0. Y0. Z0. <-----where the heck did this come from??

( MILL .750 HOLE )

I checked to see reference points were all zero, and they weren't, so I made them zero. Lil help?

 

P.S.- Why does the code come out so small?

[robh]

accidentally loaded wrong (read default) machine def?try reloading your good machine def.but otherwise "WTF"!says it.

[Joe788]

Rob got it. Wrong machine definition.

[Rob @ Target Machine]

That MD/CD/Post has mi1$ set to 0 or 1, and the post is missing an e$ at the end of the line outputting "G91 G28 Z0". Normally it should be set to 2.

 

code:

---

# mi1 - Work coordinate system

# 0 = Reference return is generated and G92 with the

# X, Y and Z home positions at file head.

# 1 = Reference return is generated and G92 with the

# X, Y and Z home positions at each tool.

# 2 = WCS of G54, G55.... based on Mastercam settings.

This is how we set our work offset back in the late 80's LOL.

/ G91 G28 Z0.

/ G28 X0. Y0.

/ G92 X-14.5678 Y-5.1234 Z-12.9876

 

Before that(G92's) we used G45's

G45 X0 D97

G45 YO D98

G45 Z0 D99

 

Machine coordinates for x,y and z went into the D97/98/99 offsets.

Sorry Mike, I didn't get your email until just now.

 

Glad to see that you got this worked out and the peck tapping is working for you.

Happens often when opening earier versions or merging in ops from earier versions

 

---Check your Misc Intergers page and set ON the "Automatically set..."

Mic,

 

The small code text is a Firefox thing. Go into Tools-Options-Content. Look in the Fonts & Colors section and click Advanced. Bump up the minimum font size.

HAH!

Thanks for the tip Thad!

All this time I struggled to read the code that people post in here LOL!

[Mic6]

Right on guys, I'll try all of that, but now the server is down for a few hours and no MC log on. Turns out the server room had a leak?!

Me too, Jeff. It finally annoyed me enough about 6 months ago that I googled it.
