Im also trying to figure out how to make things to work about post and API. So either cleanup all the files so they arent using the names you want to use, or use names that are definitely unique and make sure they arent already in the files.Īlso, it seems that you may need to CAPITALIZE and use underscores instead of spaces sometimes even when referring to an identifier that is elsewhere lowercase and with spaces. IMPORTANT NOTES: Notice how I called it option stop instead of something more logical like optional stop Well it turns out there is already a bunch of optional stop program stop crap inside all those text files and if you use an existing name and it conflicts it wont work and youll be wondering why. How to make it so on the Post tab of each operation you can enter a value directly or use a list and have it output andor modify NC code based on that. instead of option stop it would be Stop and the list would have Mandatory Stop M00 and Optional Stop M01. Some other things Ive learned, that if someone asks I will gladly post instructions for: How to make it so you can have a list of predefined options to select from when you insert the post operation. You should see an M01 wherever you inserted the post operation. Now lets add what we need to make Option stop actually output an M01 in the NC code. It looks like Camworks puts whatever additional operations you add into the Insert Post Operation dialog box.:OPERIDOption stop:OPEREND Add an entry in MASTER.ATR which gives the new operation an ID, and also update the HIGHID number in that file.:OPERIDOption stop:ATTRID17506 MASTER.ATR:ATTREND:IDHIGH17506 MASTER.ATR.Įdit it to make sure its equal to the highest ID in stop will now appear in the Insert Post Operation dialog box, but it wont do anything.

Camworks Post Processor Editor Update The HIGHID NOTE: before you try any of this junk you should at least figure out how to edit the relevant files in notepad, compile them using UPG, and then reload your post processor in camworks.Īdd another operation in yourmachine.SRC after all the existing operations.

Camworks Post Processor Editor How To Edit The Im not going to attempt to describe them since they all seem to have similar aspects and its not clear to me what can or cannot go in any of them.
