Adding trailing decimal point to post processing

[kellyBVJL2]

I'm running a 4 axis no name Chinese router and I've been using post rs274.cps/rs274D.

If there is no trailing decimal point behind every number the machine doesn't like it. For example: the machine moves the axis nearly to zero when it sees "X100" but not "X100." I'm fairly sure it's automatically placing a decimal where it thinks it it supposed to go and I'm pretty sure it's in front of the number it is reading. Does anyone know how to change a post processor to have decimal points behind every number?

Thanks!

Hello @kellyBVJL2 

you can edit you post processor and change the format used for outputting the coordinates.

You can change

var xyzFormat = createFormat({decimals:(unit == MM ? 3 : 4)});

to

var xyzFormat = createFormat({decimals:(unit == MM ? 3 : 4), forceDecimal:true});

Adding the forceDecimal in a format definition will force the decimal point to be output.

Regards.
