I'm using a HAAS_VF.PST Here is one block of of the .PST code # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Toolchange / NC output Variable Formats # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- fmt T 4 t #Tool Number fmt T 4 first_tool #First Tool Used fmt T 4 next_tool #Next Tool Used fmt D 4 tloffno #Diameter Offset Number fmt H 4 tlngno #Length Offset Number fmt G 4 g_wcs #WCS G address fmt P 4 p_wcs #WCS P address fmt S 4 speed #Spindle Speed fmt M 4 gear #Gear range I don't know if I should change any of this??? **************************************************************************************************** And here is another one that catch my attention # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- fmt "TOOL - " 4 tnote # Note format fmt " DIA. OFF. - " 4 toffnote # Note format fmt " LEN. - " 4 tlngnote # Note format fmt " DIA. - " 1 tldia # Note format # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Tool Comment / Manual Entry Section # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ptoolcomment #Comment for tool tnote = t toffnote = tloffno tlngnote = tlngno "(", pstrtool,")", e pstrtool #Comment for tool if strtool <> sblank, [ strtool = ucase(strtool) *strtool, " " ] shoul I change toffnote = tloffno to toffnote = tloffno+30 JL

Sounds like someone may have hardcoded the post to always be equal. Need to check and see if pccdia is set = to T Probably something like tloffno$ = t$ ******************************************* Would you please be more specific on how to edit my post, I would thank you very much. Should I lood for pccdia and set it to "T" or look for tloffno$ = t$ and then do what on thisone??? JL

How can I make each tool on the g-code to be tool number plus 30. // Example T1 offset D31, T2 offset D32, T9 offset D39 and so on. On MC9 I try under Job setup, tool offset registers then add 30 on diameter box. Then I post a test and it didn't work. Also I tryed on MCX and didn't work either.

what's the ftp address. Can somebody write it down

thank you guys it worked great

thank you robk; it is working now but is also trowing an A0. and it is going to cause an alarm. How can I take that A0. out of my post???

I have a group of operation that I need to run in multiple vises. How can I transelate these operations and get a program with multiple WC offsets (first vise G54, 2nd vise G55 and so on). I have been trying and all I got is one G54 and a bunch of coordinates in the g-code.

does anybody knows where can I find a good c-axis tutorial on the web

Are Hurco CNC VM series a good machine to buy? I would thank any comment about the control and the machine.

I think I have that book, for 4/5 axis but I haven't seen any thing about "C" axis programing.

hey guys do any one of you know how to apply this feature, I've been trying to use it but I probably not following the right procedure.
