post modification question

[Rick46]

I have a small section of code in my post that I would like to be at the begining of my programinstead of about 5 lines down in to it... its the code that denotes the tool nuber, offset, etc... if its 5 lines down I cannot see it in my controller under my program when I select which one I want to use... my question is in this following code where does it end at

 

example 1

 

 

pcom_moveb

c_mmlt #Multiple tool subprogram call

ptoolcomment

comment

 

 

or example 2

 

 

pcom_moveb

c_mmlt #Multiple tool subprogram call

ptoolcomment

comment

pcan

 

and also does the pcom_moveb part of this code need to be included or can I exclude it as well... I just want to make sure I move every thing that needs to be moved and not just part of it or to much of it ... thanks.....

1) You don't need to move the pcom_moveb line

 

2) pcan only outputs something when you are using canned text; in this case, canned text 'before'. I've never found canned text to be particularly useful so I don't use it; as a result I don't care where that line is. If you use canned text you'll want to move the pcan line to where you like the output; otherwise just leave it.

 

3) I typically don't 'move' any postlines; I suggest commenting the existing lines with the pound # sign and copying them to where you want, this way you'll know where they were originally if you want to revert to the 'standard'
