MPL_GEN post

[fboike]

Hello,

Is any one using the V9.1 MPL_Gen or mplfan lathe

posts with canned cycles g83,g84.

I figured Id update my posts since I have some time and my backups of my old posts are gone.

I noticed the new posts are a little diffrent.

No big deal, I have it doing exactly what I want

exept for the drill cycles, they dont work. and

I dont see a problem with the logic.

 

if gcode = 81,

[

if drillcyc = three, drlgsel = fsg1 (-g_speed) + drillcyc * two #Tap

else, drlgsel = fsg2 (dwell) + drillcyc * two

if initht <> refht, drillref = zero

else, drillref = one

prv_refht_a = c9k

prv_refht_i = c9k

]

If I change the variables I end up with a

string = 17 or string = -1 error. so it always

outputs G81 this should be an easy fix. but I just cant see it.

 

thanks in advance for any help.

Search in your post for "usecan...." This will take care of it and output G83....

That was the first thing I checked.

The problem seems to be in the logic.

it ether errors or doesnt select the proper cycle

 

Thanks
