lathe drill canned cycle output bad

[DaveR]

Just got X5.

 

My generic 2 axis lathe post used to work fine.

 

Now with a peck drill cycle it outputs

 

(SPOT TOOL .75 DIA.)

G0 T0404

G97 S500 M03

G0 G54 X0. Z.25

CUSTOMIZABLE DRILL CYCLE X0. Z.25

G28 U0. W0. M05

 

Anyone know what is wrong?

 

I ran the post update utility, seemed to go fine no error message.

Dave,

 

you don't say how it's bad or what you should be getting, so I'll take a stab in the dark.

 

Have you gone into your control def and made sure the support for the peck canned drill cycle is unchecked?

Yeah I checked the control def it's checked.

 

The posted code for a peck drill cycle is in my first post there.

 

Instead of a canned cycle I got "customizable drill cycle" as the output.

 

I don't think my fanuc will understand that LOL

 

Weird.

So in the little drop down thing in the drill parameters you have drill/counterbore selected and it gives you that code when you post? Or this is a custom peck cycle that is not posting correctly?

[DaveR]

In the drop down I select peck drill then set .1 initial and .1 subsequent.

 

Post it....I get that output.

 

The custom cycle stuff on the third tab is unchecked

Dave was a peck cycle previously coded into that post because they are not by default? So someone would have had to have added the canned cycle, however I am still confused about your desired output.

 

Are you looking for long hand peck cycle output or G83 canned cycle?

Yeah I was looking for a canned cycle, G83.

 

 

But you may be right about the post I have never modified it and it may not have it in there I do not do much post modding except by specific advice I get here.

 

If it's not in the post no biggie I can live with long hand coded peck drilling

[Sbarner]

So what does it say in your post under your peck drill cycle? Perhaps we can do a couple of quick modifications and get you to where you want to be.

I've previously added this to a Haas lathe post
