i concur II enter worked in X3 tab only in X4

do you MR1 flagged in the drill cycles?

did you get this warning this monday has failed try again next week

but you setup the tool off of the tip dia it cut my sfm in half just was wondering if anybody else has seen this

just send webby with the info he needs and you are all good to go

is it just me or is the sfm off in contour using a tapermill i have a 10 deg cutter 2 flute setup 800sfm S6112 feed @36.672ipm in the tool tab it tells me the sfm is 400 all the other fields are correct checked it with a regular endmill all is good anybody else seeing this

dave ball this is on a new op and even when i pick the tool from a previous op still no update it was like that in X3 so im pretty good at clicking it now just a PITA when you import ops and have to click each tool and then check to make sure the coolant is on

i have the problem where there is 9 coolant commands (X style coolant) in the same pulldown they just repeat them selves and the coolant never seems to stick even if i click on the tool i still have to pull it down select the coolant option then the "before ,with ,after" will then be active not greyed out unless im missing something here

make your own

post class has now started thanks for your time jim evans on helping us with this

to inhouse

peon i got one post cleared up. i had 1 open bracket fixed it and error went away thanks Paul Decelles from CNC

paul thanks for clearing it up a bit i will send you a zip2go

gcode i hear what you are saying but i have never used a post without some kinda tweaking added. as it looks only peon and me have some posts tweaked that are incorrect. so i guess we need some post school or something. we are apparently doing something wrong maybe i will send one to my reseller and have them take a peek at it and see what they have to say

crazy millman could it have been you that said something

i think i might do the same (if we ever get slow) just start with a fresh post tweak as needed for X4 and move on. it will be quicker than going thru all of the errors in the X3 posts that have an issue now and not before i bad mouth edgecam all the time but they have updates that go flawlessly no post issues at all but otherwise the software sucks maybe someday we will have that

peon i agree the code looks good (cimco backplot) but what a way to panic when the posts worked good in X3 and after update you start getting the .err file you start to second guess yourself about what update did. i program for more than 10 cncs i cant afford a crash i finally got the operators to just run the programs very little prove out and whats the difference anyway at 567ipm they are not going to stop it in time

this is my line 785 scc1 : "G41" #Cutter compensation left but this post has been tweaked for a makino and i added some misc intergers so the line # wont work out for me

gcode i did. it told me that a possible parameter number detected 17044 please check number ok looked it up in the ref book told me nothing to help me or what to change it to so you are saying my X3 post is messed up and X4 is not happy with it and had problems with the update so it ran good in X3 i will just go back i dont have the time to screw around with this i should have known better than to update thanks for the help guys

X4 Mu1 anyone?

this is what i have #Rotary/Index variables csav : 0 #C saved value prvcabs : 0 #Saved cabs from pe_inc_calc, #Used for rotary feed and direction calculations cdelta : 0 #Calculation for angle change rev : 0 #Calculation for deg/min sav_rev : 0 #Saved revolution counter #--- Do not change the order of these variable initializations cabs : 0 cinc : 0 cout_i : 0 indx_out : c9k #Rotation direction calculation #--- prv_indx_out : c9k #Rotation direction calculation fmt 16 indx_mc #Rotation direction calculation

peon it must just be us cheese heads that are having this problem

yes one is : MP v11.1.0.0 one is MP v11.0

peon were you trying it on a file that was created in X3?

peon/JP i have the .err file set the same way in the CD
