Adding information from Setup Sheet to g-code

[Jake E.]

Is there a way to link the information form the Setup Sheet General Information to the Post Processor to have it come out in the program?

 

INFORMATION IN RED IS FROM ATTACHED PIC

(PROJECT - 18352)

Anyone????

Set up sheet uses active reports, the post has no access to those files, so not possible, sorry.

The information from the Setup Sheet window you show is normally located in %MCamSharedDir%\common\reports\

There is a text file there for each entry in that window.

 

However, since posting code and running the setup sheet are two different actions, there is no guarantee that the information

there is recent and appropriate for the currently posted SetUp Sheet. You may well get information from there for the LAST

program you ran a setup sheet for.

So if I were to do the Setup Sheet first, then post the program, how would I modify the post? The files with the information are .dat files (Customer.dat, Programmer.dat, etc)

 

Here are the lines from the post for the header information:

 

 

 

pheader$ #Call before start of file

"%", e$

sav_spc = spaces$

spaces$ = 0

*progno$, sopen_prn, sprogname$, sclose_prn, e$

#sopen_prn, "PROGRAM NAME - ", sprogname$, sclose_prn, e$

spathnc$ = ucase(spathnc$)

smcname$ = ucase(smcname$)

stck_matl$ = ucase(stck_matl$)

snamenc$ = ucase(snamenc$)

sopen_prn, "NC FILE - ", *spathnc$, *snamenc$, *sextnc$, sclose_prn, e$

sopen_prn, "PROJECT - ", sclose_prn, e$

sopen_prn, "DRAWING - ", sclose_prn, e$
