Is there a way to change machine kinematics settings with script in post processor utility?

Hi, 

Is there a way to change machine kinematics settings with script in post processor utility or import mtd file with script?

 

I tried to modify "optfile.Kinematics.MtdType", but it shows the error "read only".

 

Thanks.

Hello @Timothy2021 

 

the only three functions available for changing something in the kinematics only deal with the axis limits, or initial position.

You can't redefine the kinematic, as the objects does not publicly share functions for changing the values.

 

(There is only get function, there is not set or put)

 

The available functions are :

SetDynamicAxisInitial(axis_name, value)
SetDynamicAxisMax(axis_name, value)
SetDynamicAxisMin(axis_name, value)

 

Cheers
