We have 2 programmers here and we usually initial our programs just so we know who programmed it and I read a post on here before that had to do with just that Prompting for programmer
Ive gotten my post to prompt me for the 1=DAS 2=JW but then it doesn't put that information in the program.
code:programmer : 0 #Prompts for programmers name 1=Dustin 2=Joe DAS
code:fq 3 programmer "Enter Programmer's Number [1=Dustin,2=Joe]"
code:pcollect # Collect info
while programmer < 1 | programmer > 2, q3 #force programmer to enter a 1 or 2if programmer = 1,[sprogrammer = "Dustin"]else,[sprogrammer = "Joe"]
code:scomm_str, *month$, "/", *day$, "/", year$, " ", *hour, ":", *min, [if time$ < 12, "AM"], [if time$ >= 12, " PM"] " EC-400 ", *sprogrammer, scomm_end, e$
The only part Im not sure is where to put the pcollect i have it under the "Start of File and Toolchange Setup" portion of the post?
any help would be great
Thanks guys

I changed mine within the Machine Definition, open the "B" axis and it asks what you want to label it mine was set to "B" I changed this in the drop down list to an "A" and it fixed the problem...

I have 2 separate post 1 for each machine

Thanks Charlie worked great appreciate the help!
-
Charlie- editing... Ill try that
Brian- still puts a decimal and the control doesn't like that either
-
I searched the forums because I assumed this would be a common issue and didn't come back with anything useful...
The problem Im having is my G83 is out puttng a Q.1 which is fine for my Haas but not my Kitamura I need it to output a Q1000 Im told for it to work?
Any suggestions? MPmaster post

ooh boy uncommenting a comment that says this will fix your problem... doesn't get any easier than that.
by the way I did do a search just wrong criteria I just searched for "B0." Ill try harder next time.
Thanks again

Thanks

I tried it both ways... X2 and X3 both output the same error and each has its own MC,CD, and Post now.
Any one have a clue as to why this happened? because I never changed anything just updated and tried to post.

ERROR - SELECT MACHINE ACHIEVABLE TOOLPLANE WITH Y-AXIS ALONG MACHINE Y - SET AND REPOST
I keep getting this error when posting? The post is for my Kitamura HX300i and worked fine before X3 but now it plagues both copies as if it changed the CD or MD when converting. Not having any other issues and the code seems to be right. I haven't changed anything just converted my post over for X3.
this is the line in the post: syaxiswarn "ERROR - SELECT MACHINE ACHIEVABLE TOOLPLANE WITH Y-AXIS ALONG MACHINE Y - SET AND REPOST"
Thanx for any help
-
Thanks for all the help... I do appreciate it. Ill try a little bit of it all.
Thanks again

*I don't know which forum to put this in so feel free to relocate it if needed*
I have 3 separate part programs that we normally run one at a time on the machine but now I want to try and run all 3 parts on the same machine at the same time... Question is how do you guys do this?
Goal is to run part 1 then when the cycle is done switch to part 2 then when cycle is done switch to part 3 running 1 part from each program (1,2,3. 1,2,3. 1,2,3. ... etc) Im not as experienced as ALOT of you guys so any help is welcome
using a Kitamura Mycenter HX300i Fanuc 16i-MB
Thanx in advance

Yeah, Ill have to try that what I have now is a detailed tombstone, with a detailed kurt vise and a block of stock in the jaws... Ill try to dumb it down to just solid blocks.
Thanks for the advice
-
Works good now, thanks for that it is slower but its better than what I was doing poorly...
Thanks a lot that clears all of my pondering questions up
-
I like it... BUT when I go into verify the STL isn't in the correct location the tool is cutting in a different area of the screen... any advice?
-
Ive been drawing everything exactly as it is in real life (ex. tombstone, fixture, part, holders, tools) and its great for programming but I can't use it to verify? (sucks...)
Ive done a few searches and read up about drawing tools with custom holders and such. Is that just for seeing if the tools hit the part?
Cause Ive been trying to get my tombstone, fixture and part into the verify with my custom tool/holder files to see it all work kinda like a SIM. I know its not supposed to but Ive had some luck turning it all into one massive solid and using it as my stock...
No real important question here just a few things I was pondering...
-
I don't know where the coolant gets put in I just know when I edited that is how I got it to do what I want... Im not a very good post editor cause I just make it do what I want and label it with a comment so I know why I changed it
Where should the coolant stuff be?
ANY help would be great this is my last issue trying to get the post to follow the same outline for all tools... all tools don't output the same way being the key issue
-
The problem is the changes im making to the post are only affecting tool one and not the rest of the tools in the program... any help??
-
Got it worked out I had to move the ] around... credit given to JParis
Thanks guys
topic complete
Want the post to Prompt me...

the pcollect is the first thing after the pheader line
moved pcollect and post block to psof$
That line is located in my pheader its my date,time,machine,programmer line.
also if i change the *sprogrammer to programmer within my pheader line it will out put the word programmer along with my selection number in the program "programmer 1."
