How to modify post to make it work?

1- My controller doesn't support cycl def 247 when using multiple WCS.

CYCL DEF 7.0 datum shift

CYCL DEF 7.1 # -> with table is the one we need.

2- Coolant on just after tool change.

3- Have the posted date at the beginning of the program with other comments

Hi @louisaldNTLD6,

1. change line 99

var useCycl247 = false ; // use CYCL 247 for work offset

2. change line 1025

  if (insertToolCall) {
  setCoolant(tool.coolant);
  }

3. add ... at line 259

  // ######################################################################                                                
  writeSeparator();
  if (hasGlobalParameter("document-path"))  { 
      var path = getGlobalParameter("document-path");
      if (path) {
      writeComment(localize("FILE") + "    = " + path);
      }
  }  
  if (hasGlobalParameter("username")) { 
    var username = getGlobalParameter("username");
    if (username) {
      writeComment("USERNAME" + " = " + username);
    }
  }
	
	var timeFormat = createFormat({decimals:0, force:true, width:2, zeropad:true});                                           
  var now = new Date();
  writeComment("DATE    = " + timeFormat.format(now.getDate()) + "." + timeFormat.format(now.getMonth() + 1) + "." + now.getFullYear()); 
  writeComment("TIME  = " + timeFormat.format(now.getHours()) + ":" + timeFormat.format(now.getMinutes()) + ":" + timeFormat.format(now.getSeconds())); 
  writeSeparator();

The third one has more information ... you can use all and just delete the others.

Perhaps you must change the Date format (in my case +1)

Thank you very much, change line 99 it works great, Line 1025 did not
change anything and where would I check my date format?

Thank you again.

Line 1025 should change that your coolant only will be postet after a tool call and not after every operation...

You wanted that only after tool call?

Easiest way is you make a part/file and attach it. Then attach you PP and a g-code how it should look like.

Then I can change your PP.
