Mazak post - need to move smoothing (G5 P2) below lengthcompensation (G43) ----- Help!

Im using the generic Mazak post for our VCN 570c.  In order for smoothing to work it (G5 P2) must be called after the G43 line.  I have move the  setSmoothing(smoothing.isAllowed); line to every line I could think of and received either an error or no change in return.  I'm sure this is  a simple fix and it would be so nice not to have to modify each post manually for this.

 

Thank you for your support!!

HI @will263RT 

 

Thanks for raising your concern via Forum.

 

Open 'Mazak.cps' file in a 'Visual Studio Code' or 'Notepad++' to do the required modifications.

 

1. Go to line number 1222 , cut the line ' setSmoothing(smoothing.isAllowed);

 

2. Paste the code at line number 1275 ie, after ' 

validate(lengthCompensationActive, "Length compensation is not active."); '
 
3. Go to line number 762, put '//' just before ' 
validate(!lengthCompensationActive, "Length compensation is active while trying to update smoothing.");
 
Save the file and test the post carefully.
 
Regards
