Locking Out Work Co ordinate System

[Candyman]

Hi All,

As a general rule i dont use the Work co ordinate system in mastercam..

I only ever want to output G54...

So is there a way to completly overide the work co ordinate system in mastercam?

When ever i change c planes from top to side or front mastercam changes my cplane for the operation im working on..

Is it possible to stop this from happening?

Thanks

Put a 0 in the work offset field of every tool plane

Or yes, you could modify your post

Edit the post, search for G55, Then change all the offsets to read G54, There are other methods but this is simple.

 

Now keep in mind if you do this you will never be able to post G55 until you re edit the post again.

 

As far as your program, if you don't change the work offset value in your wcs manager you should maintain a G54 condition.

If you are using mpmaster or a post derived from mpmaster there is a misc value "lock on first work offset" if you turn that on in the first tool-path it will only output G54.
