Change of coolant in Postprocessor

[Guffie]

I have a quick little question for those of you who knows somehting about postprocessor editing...

 

To get the highest possible pressure when we drill with I/K we normally switch off the outside coolant, but I have to manually add a M9 always before the M51 (I/K code)

 

The part of the post looks like below... How do I change this to post out first M9 and on next line M51?

 

# Coolant M code selection

sm09 : "M9" #Coolant Off

sm08 : "M8" #Coolant Flood

sm08_1 : "M8" #Coolant Mist

sm08_2 : "M51" #Coolant Tool

 

If any has an idea it would be great!!

# Coolant M code selection

sm09 : "M9" #Coolant Off

sm08 : "M8" #Coolant Flood

sm08_1 : "M8" #Coolant Mist

sm08_2 : "M51" #Coolant Tool

This is the string definition area for 'scoolant' string, the actual coolant command area is in 'psof', 'ptlchg' and 'ptlchg0' areas.

In these areas, where you find 'scoolant' specified, you need something like this:

 

if coolant = 3, #Evaluates whether "M51" is active

[

"M9", e$ #Force "M9" on its own line

*scoolant, e$ #Force "M51" output on its own line

]

else, scoolant, e$ #If not "M51" coolant output if needed on own line.

 

This can be adjusted for desired output.

Thanks for the info... I'll take a look on it when I'm back at work monday!
