Hi to all, I have a question. Is there any vble or way to know how many holes has a cycle?. More exactly, I want to know when the cycle is finished but before to retract. Thanks.

I found only a few opinfo information in the MP documentation, and searching here I saw your post. I cant do it works. Can you show me any examples for understand better that function?. does It work in X9?.

The documentation show me all the parameters but not how get it from the pst file.

Thanks

I think the most easy way is using auxiliary registers (reg1$ - reg10$). I will have to do two times the work of write the skimpasses numbers but I can use that in my post.

Thanks to all for your help. If someone think other way please tell me.

thanks. Buffer is a mistery for me. If someone could show me how it eorks?. I found a post here but my english is bad and I cant understand it.

It explains how it works, but I cant apply to my post.

Thanks to all

Can I use a buffer in a old pst?. This pst is from X4 I think. . .I can use a buffer to solve my Problem?

Thanks to all

As you can see at picture, I have 4 operations, every one have more passes. I need to add a special value to the line

TECH THICK 100. CRIT 0 "TRIM VALUE"

This line is generated in every pass to charge machine tech, I need to add at the end the word TRIM and de number of skimpasses. I have to do more changes but If I have the value I use it for those changes.

Thanks

ONA TEST.Z2G

ONA TEST.NC

I was searching in the documentation, but I dont know if I can use those values in any part of the post and how can I call the value from the post.  Is there other way  to know the number of passes from the post in every operation. 

Thanks to all for reading.

But skimpass only give if it is the first, the last or if it is in the middle. if I dont have skimpass its value will be 0, but if I have 4 passes skimpass will be 1 in the first, -1 in the second and in the third, and in the fourth it will be -2. I need to know that are 4 passes. That is the question. How can I konw this?. 

Thanks for your answers.

Hi to all. I have a question for you. I know that the pass$ give me the current pass number and Skimpass$ give me de current multiple pass, but I need to know the total number of skimpass in every operation. Is there any variable for that?. Thanks for your help.

edit:

It is a wire post. Sorry

I have read in other MILL POSTS that you can change the position of G41 / G42 and G40. 

That's what I want to do. I want the G41 / G42 to appear before any contour movement and on its own line, and fthe G40 to appear after the last contour movement and on its own line as well.

But, here's my question I'm using the Generic PST MPWFANUC V2020, but I can't find PCCDIA and PREV_CC_POS,  these are the variables used in their changes. 

Is there any way to do the same in WIRE PST?. Thank you

I will keep trying to turn the new generic Wire PST to my old PST. I'll try to expose the problems more specifically to see if you can help me to solve they. 

Thanks to all for your help

I know it is an older PST file. But I don't understand If it works well in V2017 what's the reason it doesn't work more. I am trying to change the generic wire PST V2027 but with the same changes in the code doesn't works like older.

Thanks for help. I will tell you if I find a solution.

Thanks for your help.

These are the post, control and machine working well in 2017 version. But if I try to convert to 2018, 2019 or 2020 It don't work. There are problems migrating with chook or wizard, all look well but when I select the pst in the control appears a msg of error.

Can someone convert to a newer version that 2017?.  It is a wire pst.

I know the resellers earn money with the posts, but if I could find any book about how post works I will buy it.

Thanks

ONA.zip

Thanks to all, I am converting in every version of Mcam. When I try to convert from 2017 to 2018 apears some error. If I cant solve that I will update the file pst and I hope someone can convert.

Thanks again to all 

I have a post modified for me for the X9 that works well, but if I convert it for 2020 doesnt work. 

do you have any solution for convert the older post to 2020 version?

Thanks
