Removing decimal from dwell value

[medaq]

Our Matsuura is getting " Illegal use of decimal point" when hitting g81 or a dwell cycle. The g81 has on the line P0. and the decimal is alarming the mache. I have an area where I want to dwell P1000. and also an alarm. So I need to remove the decimal point.

 

fmt  "P" 11 dwell$      #Dwell

I am assuming I change the 11 in the fmt section for a different format. But not positive to which one.

Hopefully one is defined like you need. Change the value and go down the fmt list and repost. Now you will figure out what each one does and learn a little more about how the fmt statement works in the post.

For me to make a good guess I would need to see all the fmt statements.

I am using the Mpmaster post. But I will go through each to see the results I need. 

 

Thank you

fs2 4   1 0 1 0     #Integer, not leading

So

fmt  "P" 4 dwell$      #Dwell

Just now, So not a Guru said:

fs2 4   1 0 1 0     #Integer, not leading

So

fmt  "P" 4 dwell$      #Dwell

That was the one that worked for me. Thank you for the help.

If we review what they say then we see 4-8 are Integer output along with 16. They would be the ones I try 1st.
