The struggle is real with visual code. Help w/ mitsubishi post.

[Anonymous]

Hoping someone can help me out here. id like to learn how to do this for future posts so i am looking for an explanation if possible. I am trying to figure out how to add certain g codes into the same block as other g codes. For example I am using the mitsubishi post and I need the start and ends to be as follows. (I can easily delete unwanted g codes,  adding seems to cause issues.)

(START)

01000

(part name)    *(added after post)

G20

G0 G17 G90 G80 G40 G49

T1 M6

G0 G54 G90 G40 X0 Y0 S500 M3 

G43 H1 Z.25

/M8

T2

(END OF OP)

G0 Z.25 M9

M5

G91 G28 ZO.

G91 G28 Y0.

M01

Thanks!

Hi @Anonymous,

I am not 100% clear on what you are adding, but as an example, I would suggest formating as follows.  I made some quick additions to the safety line by changing line 309 in mitsubishi.cps from 

writeBlock(gAbsIncModal.format(90), gFeedModeModal.format(94), gPlaneModal.format(17));

to

writeBlock(gMotionModal.format(0), gPlaneModal.format(17), gFormat.format(40), gFormat.format(49), gCycleModal.format(80), gAbsIncModal.format(90), gFeedModeModal.format(94));

 That might be above where you are looking to add codes, but if it is not correct, you can reply with some specifics on what the code looked like before you made changes and how you want it to look after your changes.

Thanks,
