Master Cam X6 - MWPFANUC.pst

[dzcatic]

Hello,

I am having problem with the programs which are made in master cam x6 for wire machine.

I was wondering if is possible to make programs on two decimals( 5.42) instead of four (5.4210). If is possible, what I need to change.

I am asking because I could not find it in the program. I could find but it is only related to drawing.

I suppose I need to change some values in MPWFANUC.pst part of code where word decimal is mentioned. I am not sure is the part of code posted below right, I am guessing:

# --------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Format statements - n=nonmodal, l=leading, t=trailing, i=inc, d=delta
# --------------------------------------------------------------------------
#Format statements
fs2 1 0.7 0.6 #Decimal, absolute, 7 place, default for initialize (
fs2 2 0.5 0.4 #Decimal, absolute, 5/4 place
fs2 3 0.5 0.4d #Decimal, delta, 5/4 place
#Common format statements
fs2 4 1 0 1 0 #Integer, not leading
fs2 5 2 0 2 0l #Integer, force two leading
fs2 6 3 0 3 0l #Integer, force three leading
fs2 7 4 0 4 0l #Integer, force four leading
fs2 9 0.1 0.1 #Decimal, absolute, 1 place
fs2 10 0.2 0.2 #Decimal, absolute, 2 place
fs2 11 0.3 0.3 #Decimal, absolute, 3 place
fs2 12 0.4 0.4 #Decimal, absolute, 4 place
fs2 13 0.5 0.5 #Decimal, absolute, 5 place
fs2 14 0.3 0.3d #Decimal, delta, 3 place
fs2 15 0.2 0.1 #Decimal, absolute, 2/1 place
fs2 16 1 0 1 0n #Integer, forced output
# These formats used for 'Date' & 'Time'
fs2 18 2.2 2.2lt #Decimal, force two leading & two trailing (time2)
fs2 19 2 0 2 0t #Integer, force trailing (hour)
fs2 20 0 2 0 2lt #Integer, force leading & trailing (min)

 

I have uploaded .txt file of whole post processor code.

 

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Change the format of any output character like this:

fmt  "X" 2  xabs        #X position output

to this:

fmt  "X" 10  xabs        #X position output

This will make all 'X' outputs 2 place decimal.  Do the same for any other address prefixes.

I have tried but did not work work I and J. I still get I-3.4351 & J-1.6154

 

I have changed only these lines

fmt  "X" 2  xabs        #X position output  -> fmt  "X" 10  xabs        #X position output

fmt  "Y" 2  yabs        #Y position output -> fmt  "Y" 10  yabs        #Y position output

 

fmt  "I" 3  iout        #Arc center description in X ->  fmt  "I" 10  iout        #Arc center description in X

fmt  "J" 3  jout        #Arc center description in Y -> fmt  "J" 10  jout        #Arc center description in Y

 

Do I need to change anything else or am I doing something wrong because I did not get result?

 

Thanks for your time!

This area is creating the I and J problems:

pq$              #Setup post based on switch settings
      if arctype$ = one | arctype$ = four,
        [
        result = newfs(two, iout)
        result = newfs(two, jout)
        ]
      else,
        [
        result = newfs(three, iout)
        result = newfs(three, jout)
        ]

You can fix it like this:

 pq$              #Setup post based on switch settings
      if arctype$ = one | arctype$ = four,
        [
        #  result = newfs(two, iout)
        #  result = newfs(two, jout)
        ]
      else,
        [
        #  result = newfs(three, iout)
        #  result = newfs(three, jout)
        ]

What is the problem your machine has with 4 place decimals?

Thank you so much!
