Force X Y Z coordinates output for num post processor

[Anonymous]

Hello all, 

I'm currently using the num post processor and my machine doesn't seem to accept this kind of transition:

N1290 X565.788 Y519.58 Z-8. R1.8 K1.114
N1295 G01 Y500.393 F2000.

I was therefore wondering if there was a way to force the post processor to output (in this case X) all the X Y Z coordinates?
I'm guessing this should be around line 756 in num.cps

function onLinear(_x, _y, _z, feed) {
  var x = xOutput.format(_x);
  var y = yOutput.format(_y);
  var z = zOutput.format(_z);

Thanks!

Another interesting line:

N6690 X838.575 Y303.574 Z-6.889 R1.8 K21.158
N6695 Y303.676 Z-6.551 R1.8 K37.282
N6700 X838.574 Y303.711 Z-6.2 R1.8 K114.795

No X here either 🙂

So I seem to have found a solution, however I guess it's considered as cheating 🙂

simply calling forceXYZ(); at the start of each function

I don't think that works for every case though.

At the top of eahc post processor there are lines like these:

var sOutput = createVariable({prefix:"S", force:true}, rpmFormat);

You have the same for XOutput or XYZOutput. The "force:true" makes it output always even if the value is the same for that movement.

That did it... thanks a lot!

Hello,

i need to force the output of G01, G02, G03 etc.

My used modified postprocessor always delete the next same G01 for example.

e.g.

G01 Z2 F7
Z1
Z-1.5 F5
Z2 F11.7
Z-1.5 F7
G03 X-55.063 Y34.75 I-12.25 J0
G01 Z-2.3 F5

I need it like this:

G01 Z2 F7
G01 Z1
G01 Z-1.5 F5
G01 Z2 F11.7
G01 Z-1.5 F7
G03 X-55.063 Y34.75 I-12.25 J0
G01 Z-2.3 F5

Pls help...

Bonjour a tous,

j ai le meme probleme avec un post pro num ,j ai bien mis " force:true" mais il me manque toujours le XY .

je vous met ci joint le fichier programme ainsi que mon post pro

pouvez vous m aider 

Merci d avance

Hello @arnaud.robillard 

I guess that the issue is on the line with the G02/G03 ?

If so then you will need to open your post, search for the onCircular command.

Then you will need to change the following lines :

  if (isFullCircle()) {
    if (properties.useRadius || isHelical()) { // radius mode does not support full arcs
      linearize(tolerance);
      return;
    }
    switch (getCircularPlane()) {
    case PLANE_XY:
      writeBlock(gAbsIncModal.format(90), gPlaneModal.format(17), gMotionModal.format(clockwise ? 2 : 3), iOutput.format(cx), jOutput.format(cy), feedOutput.format(feed));
      break;

As you can see for the XY plane, no coordinates are output after the potential G90 G17 G2/G3 it will be I J F.

But not X,Y,Z

You will need to change this to

Hope it helps.
