Try this as you can see I have changed "OpenTeachFile" to  "AppendTeachFile". you need one OpenTeachFile to start the file and after that you are going to stick everything on the end of the file.



OpenTeachFile "turn.tap"
CloseTeachFile                                          (Button for adding user file name)
call LoadTeachFile()

AppendTeachFile"turn.tap"
Call DoOEMbutton (2)                               (Selecting first operation)

AppendTeachFile "turn.tap"
Code "G18 G40 G49 G90 G94 G80"         (Starting Code for first operation)
G0 X100Z150
Code "M3"

G0 X100Z150
Code "M5"
CloseTeachFile
Call LoadTeachFile()                                  (End and posting Code for first operation)
Call DoOEMbutton(1)
End Sub

AppendTeachFile "turn.tap"
Call LoadTeachFile()                                  (Selecting second operation)
Call DoOEMButton (3)

call LoadTeachFile()
appendTeachFile "turn.tap"
G0 X100Z150                                             (Starting code for second operation)
Code "M3"

G0X100Z150
Code "M5"
Code "M30"
CloseTeachFile                                           (Ending and posting second operation)
Call LoadTeachFile
End Sub
Main

After you are all done with the file we are going to add a SAVE code button that will give you a chance to chnge the file name.

Anytime! I just need to see where you are at before I start telling you what to do

There are no dumb questions, other than the one that you didn't ask!

Deon,
Thank you for the post!
On the screen you are going to need to have a button to make a new File and this will have the open teach file that you have been using.

when you would like to add to the program you can use the AppendTeachFile "File.tap" .
For now get this running with the file.tap and we will worry about changing the name of the file latter:) For an example please look at the Teach wizard.

Please see what that will do for you and we will go from there, I think this is going to be fun to get this running for you!

He can not add in the fonts because of how he is making the letters. He has each letter as Gcode and is shifting them and scaleing them to give you your program.

Sorry but you are going to have to use Cam to get the fonts

You are right and that is where I am headed... But if he gets back to us and is saying "G it looks the same" there is an other problem like a loose wire on the switch.

Thanks for the input

You need to wire from the Ground to G to NC to G to NC to input

Hope that helps and think you for the DXF

under config/logic try putting in a value of 200 for the debounce interval. This should fix your problem.

Thank you
