Error check post challenge

[ahaslam]

First off, I don't even know if this is possible but I would like to find out.

 

I want to put error checking in my post for the output of a G40 - G42 in a G2/G3. To make it just a little more helpful I want it to tell me in the error file what operation the error is in.

 

pcir$        # Circular interpolation                                2
            sgplane, sgcode, pccomp, x$, y$, z$, parcrad, pfr, pcan,e$

 

Here I have a pcan and a pccomp.

 

If pccomp or pcan in activated in this line I want it to output an error but not shut down the post. I want it to also tell me the operation number (example op 12 contour 2d) that has the error. Is this possible?

that is already setup in the mpmaster post that is available on this website

I could switch to that post, but there are a lot of things I would have to change, I am working on making the changes but wanted to know if someone could help me edit the post I already have setup for this machine. I'll look at that post and see if I can figure it out.

The generic post from IHS is miles ahead of the post that comes with a standard install.  It is well worth the time to rebuild your post using IHS mpmaster / mplmaster.

 

 

Define this:     sOpSeqNo     : ""    #Operation manager displayed operation number

 

Add to pparameter$:     if prmcode$ = 15240, sOpSeqNo = sparameter$

 

Add this error message:   scompwarn = "OPERATION " + sOpSeqNo + ": WARNING - CUTTER COMP APPLIED ON ARC MOVE"

 

Add a post block:

 

pcompwarn       #Cutter Compensation Check
      if prv_cc_pos$ <> cc_pos$ & cc_pos$ & gcode$ > 1,
        [
        if compwarnflg = 0, result = mprint(scompwarn)
        spaces$ = 0
        pspc, *sm00, " ", scomm_str, scompwarn, scomm_end, e$
        spaces$ = sav_spc
        compwarnflg = 1
        ]

 

Add to pcirout:

 

       if not(arccomp), pcompwarn

Thank you, I will spend some time making changes to the IHS post next week.

You won't regret it.

Hi BD41612,

   I have the same issue and I put a message warning.  So... when does this warning message will pop up?  I'm confused between the CIRCLE MILL and a CONTOUR toolpath which I use to cut a circle.

 

Thank you.

I just got my first look at the IHS post...  ...say it like it is.
