Custom Parameters for Transform Operation

[Brad Lisle]

Could someone please tell me what the parameter numbers are for the Custom Parameters or system variables in the Transform operation? Thank you

ok I'm still stuck. I am trying to force the bld "/" for transform operations. Here is the code I added:

xform_cp    : 0     #Transform Custom Paramter (BJL 06/27/16)
xform_cp_ci1 : 0    #Transform Custom Paramter, Custom Integer #1 (BJL 06/27/16)


pparameter$ # Run parameter table

           if prmcode$ = 15870, xform_cp = rpar(sparameter$,1)  #(BJL 06/27/16)
           if prmcode$ = 15774, xform_cp_ci1 = rpar(sparameter$,1) #(BJL 06/27/16)


pwrttparam$ #Information from parameters

           if prmcode$ = 15870, xform_cp = rpar(sparameter$,1)  #(BJL 06/27/16)
           if prmcode$ = 15774, xform_cp_ci1 = rpar(sparameter$,1) #(BJL 06/27/16)


pbld            #Canned text - block delete #(BJL 06/27/16)
      if xform_cp,
       [
       if xform_cp_ci1 > 0, pfbld
       ]
      else,
       [
       if bld, pfbld
       ]

pfbld           #Force - block delete
      "/"

I can't get the xform_cp or xform_cp_ci1 to read any value other than 0.

 

Any ideas?

I ran into the same thing a week or 2 ago. All I ever got was a zero for output. following....

I haven't played with posts in several years but I am fairly certain we added predefined variables for the transform ops misc values.

 

Try using trans_mi1$, trans_mi2$, trans_mi3$, trans_mi4$, trans_mi5$, trans_mr1$, trans_mr2$, trans_mr3$, trans_mr4$, and trans_mr5$.

You rock Paul. That worked great! Thank you

MIL-TFP-41,

Here is what I did.

trans_mi1$  : 0     #Transform Custom Paramter, Custom Integer

pretract0        #End of tool path, null toolchange
      trans_mi1$ = 0 #put this line at the end of pretract0

pbld            #Canned text - block delete
      if trans_mi1$,
      	[
      	pfbld
      	]
      else,
      	[
      	if bld, '/'
      	]

pfbld           #Force - block delete
      "/"

      "/"

 

Brad thank you for posting up your results. :clap:

Brad thank you for posting up your results. :clap:

No problem.

 

I also noticed, previously I stated to put the trans_mi1$ at the end of pretract0, but you actually want to put it towards the top so it reads all the safety retracts and you want to put it in the same place for pretract #End of tool path, toolchange as well. I put the trans_mi1$ = 0 right after absinc$ = one for both post blocks. Hope this helps.
