Generic WinCNC Code Edit - G53

[rlengert]

Looking for assistance in editing a Generic WinCNC 3-axis router PP. 

Currently, my G-Code ends with the following:

X-0.7911 Y-1.2131 Z-1.5024
X-0.7921 Y-1.2124 Z-1.4947
Z0.5906
M5
G53

 I need this corrected to:

X-0.7911 Y-1.2131 Z-1.5024
X-0.7921 Y-1.2124 Z-1.4947
Z0.5906
M5
G53 G00 Z0
G53 X0 Y0

Hi @rlengert ,

You will have to first enable home retract in X, Y by modifying the lines in the post as shown below:

Original:

homeXY: { onIndexing: false, onToolChange: false, onProgramEnd: false } // Specifies when the machine should be homed in X/Y. Sample: onIndexing:{axes:[X, Y], singleLine:false}

Modified:

homeXY: { onIndexing: false, onToolChange: false, onProgramEnd: { axes: [X, Y] } } // Specifies when the machine should be homed in X/Y. Sample: onIndexing:{axes:[X, Y], singleLine:false}

Then search for function writeRetract()  and replace it with the codes given below:

Original:

function writeRetract() {
  var retract = getRetractParameters.apply(this, arguments);
  if (retract && retract.words.length > 0) {
    if (typeof gRotationModal != "undefined" && gRotationModal.getCurrent() == 68 && settings.retract.cancelRotationOnRetracting) { // cancel rotation before retracting
      cancelWorkPlane(true);
    }
    for (var i in retract.words) {
      var words = retract.singleLine ? retract.words : retract.words[i];
      if (retract.retractAxes[2]) {
        writeBlock(gFormat.format(53)); // retract
      } else {
        gMotionModal.reset();
        writeBlock(gAbsIncModal.format(90), gMotionModal.format(0), words); // retract
      }
      if (retract.singleLine) {
        break;
      }
    }
  }
}

Modified:

function writeRetract() {
  var retract = getRetractParameters.apply(this, arguments);
  if (retract && retract.words.length > 0) {
    if (typeof gRotationModal != "undefined" && gRotationModal.getCurrent() == 68 && settings.retract.cancelRotationOnRetracting) { // cancel rotation before retracting
      cancelWorkPlane(true);
    }
    for (var i in retract.words) {
      var words = retract.singleLine ? retract.words : retract.words[i];
      if (retract.retractAxes[2]) {
        forceModals(gMotionModal);
        writeBlock(gAbsIncModal.format(90), gFormat.format(53), gMotionModal.format(0), words);
      } else {
        gMotionModal.reset();
        writeBlock(gAbsIncModal.format(90), gFormat.format(53), gMotionModal.format(0), words); // retract
      }
      if (retract.singleLine) {
        break;
      }
    }
  }
}

Output should look like the screenshot below:
