i wrote a post a few days ago detailing my issues, but to cut a long story short, i changed the generic post to include a specific machine table field (from A to AB) and i changed the generic tooling file (from DEF to DEF_MATRIX) to the specific machine tool file i am posting too.

When i start the program, the machine picks up the relevant tool and travels to the first machining point, then dwells with the spindle running and stays like that. It doesnt progess any further into the rest of the program.

I have attached the code generated and i have also included a comparison program written in the machines native software.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Our HAAS does this if you don't put a decimal. like a X1 would need to be X1.

just hit me when i seen your post. It troubled me for a bit while hand writing code.

Did you tried the SCM post which is available in the post library?

They use XYLOG Plus to run programs

 

We have

 

Morbidelli universal 3615

 

SCM pratix 48 NST

 

They both run from same post on my old software but that post has never worked 100% and had to lie when programing to get it do what I needed it to

 

and sorry i don't have the programing manual

@seanGPDQR I was wondering if you got a post working for the SCM Pratix 48 NST.  I have just had this machine installed but am really struggling to create a good post.  I have been modifying a couple of generic SCM ones I have found however they don't seem to treat the codes correctly e.g. the XG0 commands on this machine are more of a "start a profile here" command rather than being rapids.

Would be grateful for any support or willing to pay for a working post.  Cheers. Richard

It seems like programming this machine needs lot manual commands like sheet size, sheet offset from the corner, machining area, sheet holding command etc.. 
I got the manual somehow, I will create a initial post. Kindly DM me if someone is interested in testing the post

@boopathi.sivakumar yes it is a slightly odd one.  I have the programming manual and plenty of files of sample code which came on the machine's PC if they are of any help.  

I would be very keen on supporting any progress and happy to offer financial incentive if this helps!!  I had messaged few companies through the Services Marketplace but never heard back.  We have the machine sat there looking great but entirely useless 😂

 

@seanGPDQR Thank you for your reply.

Kindly share the few sample codes and manual which you have... mine is quite old html format, definitely helpful for building the post.

Attached is zip with a bunch of random programs, and two manuals.  Particularly note the section titled "How to Use the Computer : Using Keyboard and Mouse".   Apparently a mouse should have a rubber ball on the bottom.

It seems the pmg files are encoded so I can't able to read the code.. Is is possible to get it in a readable format?
