generic 5x post giving crazy A numbers


Recommended Posts

I created a post from the Generic and thought I had it correct.  When posting individual tool paths the numbers are right but when posting together (null tool change) the numbers are not correct.   This is an AC SNK horizontal 

For example by itself I get 

C180. A-4.921

when null I get 

C-89.135 A5008.907

Has anyone seen this?

 

 

my parameters are:

#Primary axis angle description (in machine base terms)
#With nutating (mtype 3-5) the nutating axis must be the XY plane
rotaxis1$ = vecy  #Zero
rotdir1$  = -vecx  #Direction

#Secondary axis angle description (in machine base terms)
#With nutating (mtype 3-5) the nutating axis and this plane normal
#are aligned to calculate the secondary angle
rotaxis2$ = vecz  #Zero
rotdir2$  = vecx  #Direction

 

thanks

Steve Austin

I have a question, what are the limitations of edits one can make to a post with a psb attached?  Can you edit drill cycles? Is it only encrypted with the probe and TCP TWP logic?

There are areas for g68 map but I wouldn't need that, it's also doesn't post any g68 now that I think about it
