Lost My M8 and M9 after a lot of post editing

I have my post so close to posting straight to the machine.

I need the M8 (coolant on) after the g43 z*** h01 block

and the M9 on the last g0 z*** retract of each operation

 

Thanks

Hello @cncprogrammerer ,

 

I think you have to do a few modification to re-activate coolant codes.

First of all, I think you have to un-comment the writeBlock command for writing coolants.

It is at line 1060 in setCoolant function :

Then you can move the setCoolant call function from line 603 to line 660.

This is the proper position:

Please test it carefully and let me know.

Thanks for the help. Post is looking 99 percent there. The few issues left require a bit more programming than i am comfortable with as of now but its "post to machine" ready which is going to save so much time. No editing!
