Hi all, I am trying to tranform a dynamic optirest toolpath. I have the path I want on the right side of my part. I want to use that same path on the left side of my part. Keep in mind this is on a 5th axis so I mean that the dynamic path essentially faces the right side of my part I want to use it to face the left side of my part as well. When I translate it seems to just flip it to the postive side of y axis. I got somewhat close messing with the planes options. I did get the tool to approach from the opposite side like it should look but that path was still off in the air...I am just looking for some good lessons on translating paths in 5th axis situations where they will need to use other planes and such...I can upload a zip2go to google drive if I must but just looking for some thorough lessons or videos on the subject. Hopefully this makes sense to someone the screenshot I took was 99 kB so too big to post...

Hi guys, So I'm trying to read parameter #15557, which is successful on the first read, but does not refresh. For instance if I have a transform rotate operation, the variable xformtype will change from 0 to 13. After the transform tool path it does not revert back to 0 and remains with a value of 13 through all subsequent operations. I tried setting the value back to 0 at the tool change but that does not work. The control definition is set to read parameters from transform and source parameters. I'm assuming that since there is no parameter 15557 on subsequent operations that the pparameter$ post block does not read it. Is there a way to clear this variable on the fly? ltlchg$ #Toolchange, lathe xformtype = 0 pparameter$ #Information from parameters #"pwrttparam", ~prmcode$, ~sparameter$, e$ if prmcode$ = 15145, metvals = rpar(sparameter$,1) if prmcode$ = 15346, comp_type = rpar(sparameter$,1) if prmcode$ = 20103, stinsert2 = sparameter$ if prmcode$ = 20110, stholder2 = sparameter$ if prmcode$ = 10124, g71type = rpar(sparameter$,1) result = fprm (abs(lathecc)) if prmcode$ = 20102, tool_orien = rparsngl(sparameter$, 1) if prmcode$ = 20102, tool_width = rparsngl(sparameter$, 4) if prmcode$ = 20108, tooltyp = rparsngl(sparameter$, 1) if prmcode$ = 20108, shank_dia = rparsngl(sparameter$, 3) if prmcode$ = 20108, tip_angle = rparsngl(sparameter$, 4) if prmcode$ = 20108, feed3 = rparsngl(sparameter$, 13) if prmcode$ = 20004, feed3 = rparsngl(sparameter$, 7) if prmcode$ = 10519, zstr = rpar(sparameter$, 1) if prmcode$ = 20100, bore_ident = rparsngl(sparameter$, 2) if prmcode$ = 20002, stinsert3 = sparameter$ if prmcode$ = 20004, tooltyp = rparsngl(sparameter$, 2) if prmcode$ = 20007, shank_dia = rparsngl(sparameter$, 5) if prmcode$ = 20004, tip_angle = rparsngl(sparameter$, 8) if prmcode$ = 20001, stoname1 = sparameter$ if prmcode$ = 20103, stoname1 = sparameter$ if prmcode$ = 20100, scustootyp = rparsngl(sparameter$, 2) if prmcode$ = 20004, th_pitch = rparsngl(sparameter$, 7) if prmcode$ = 20004, cor_rad = rparsngl(sparameter$, 6) if prmcode$ = 20007, fl_len = rparsngl(sparameter$, 2) if prmcode$ = 15042, broachrep = rpar(sparameter$, 1) if prmcode$ = 15240, sOpSeqNo = sparameter$ if prmcode$ = 15240, OpSeqNo = rpar(sparameter$, 1) if prmcode$ = 15387, leadin = rpar(sparameter$, 1) if prmcode$ = 10119, leadout = rpar(sparameter$, 1) if prmcode$ = 15351, axsub = rpar(sparameter$, 1) if prmcode$ = 20108, tldia = rparsngl(sparameter$, 2) if prmcode$ = 10020, clpln = rpar(sparameter$, 1) if prmcode$ = 15346, comptype = rpar(sparameter$, 1) if prmcode$ = 20108, ldia = rparsngl(sparameter$, 2) if prmcode$ = 15557, xformtype = rpar(sparameter$, 1) Thanks in advance
