DMG NHX Celos only output H01

[area419jon]

Id like to adjust my DMG NHX with Celos post to only output H01 instead of the specific tool number.  This has to do with the way the Mapps 5 control handles tool management on this machine, it only wants to see H01 instead of say H25.  I changed all my tools to have H1, but I keep getting nearly bitten by this if I copy/paste a toolpath from something else and its using the wrong tool.

Thank you

Hello @area419jon ,

the variable managing the Tool Length Offset is called 'lengthOffset'.

It is used at line 1458 and at line 1466 of the original DMG Mori NHX postprocessor, has shown here :

I think you can replace 'lengthOffset' with 1. This has to done on both lines:

hFormat.format(1)

Please test it carefully and let me know.

Worked perfect, thank you!

While I have you in here.  On the CMX Fanuc post, how would I change the end home position to G30 instead of G28?

Hello @area419jon ,

the postprocessor available on the postprocessor library has a user property named 'Safe Retracts'.

This allows you to choose between G28 and G30.

You can see below this choice in the 2 available postprocessor windows:

Please let me know.
