Wire Post

[CNCGUY]

Im working on a post for our Sodik EDM (MARK21 Control).

 

At this point I am modifying MPWSD280 and getting

code:

---

" C451 H088 ; "

" G01 X-.054 Y-.2658 ; "

" X-.00207 ; "

" X.00647 Y-.25726 ; "

" G02 X.01 Y-.2558 I.00353 J-.00354 ; "

" G01 X.06 ; "

" G02 X.065 Y-.2608 I0. J-.005 ; "

---

How do I get rid of the " and ; ?

 

Is there a diff. post I should use that might work better?

 

Thanks for the help

You need to also put up the same body part of the post. It could be hard coded or soft coded. Without seeing actullay the part of post hard to say the best way. I would not know if that si the best post or not to use.

Have you took a look at the mpwsd350 post that comes w/ mcam? I use this post for our LN1W control for our sodick

I looked at that one but it doesnt post I and J for arcs.

I get I or J. Is this an easy fix?

[Harryman]

If the move happened to interpolate from one quadrant to another only I or J would be required. Did you happen to test geometry where that simplest case interpolation ocurred?

This whole wire thing is new to me, no idea what I am doing yet. I was just comparing current code with Mcam code (not the same part either).

In most posts, you will find this 'arcoutput' option ->>

 

arcoutput : 0 #IJ arc, 0 = IJK, 1 = R no sign, 2 = R signed neg. over 180

 

 

In the MPWSDMK30.PST the arc center outputs occur in the PARC postblock ->

 

code:

---

parc            #Arc center output - IJ, arctype controls form

if arcoutput = zero | do_full_arc,

[

iout = i

jout = j

iout, jout

]

else,

[

if abs(sweep) <= 180 | arcoutput = one,

result = nwadrs(srad, arcrad)

else, result = nwadrs(srminus, arcrad)

*arcrad

]

---

If you wish to always FORCE output both I & J, on every arc block, you can add an "*" (asterisk) to the 'iout' and 'jout' variables ->

 

code:

---

parc            #Arc center output - IJ, arctype controls form

if arcoutput = zero | do_full_arc,

[

iout = i

jout = j

*iout, *jout

]

else,

[

if abs(sweep) <= 180 | arcoutput = one,

result = nwadrs(srad, arcrad)

else, result = nwadrs(srminus, arcrad)

*arcrad

]
