Jeremy how did you get around the C Axis rotation limited to <180 degrees in a single rotation. say from Right to left plane. as shown below.
G54.4
G0 A 0. C180.
( 1820 illegal command in G54.4)
Cause 1. Such a command has been assigned that the travel on a rotational axis exceeds an angle of 180 degree before or after the correction of the tool direction. 2. The distance of correcting motion on the primary or secondary rotational axis for work piece placement error correction is beyond the limit particularly set for MAZATROL programs.
Action 1. Divide the move command so that the angular motion, whether it be before or after being corrected, will be up to 180 degrees in terms of the travel per block. 2. Modify the settings of angular errors (delta a, delta b, delta c) in order that the distance of correcting motion on the primary or secondary rotational axis may not exceed the limit concerned.
Yes you can from a post setup sheet. You can post out a file that will. Email me and I will sent you the post that I wrote out for what I wanted in it.
