Mach Screens / Probe

« on: February 04, 2019, 12:45:01 PM »

Below is a script i made with machscreen v1.7. but it tells me the the command is too long and points to the block(first line).
hope someone can help me. Thanks


'probe on Z axis 
Probe = 1.89  'probe height
Depth = -1.5   'z negative travel 
Feed = 4
Code "G20 G31 Z" & Depth & " F" & Feed
While IsMoving()
Wend
SetOEMDRO(802,Probe)
While IsMoving()
Wend
Code "G91 G00 Z.2"
While IsMoving()
Wend
Code "G90"
End

i understand. but to change your feed you'll have to go thru the script
and change each one. i understand that feed is modal and if i put
F6 at the top in would feed at 6 till it gets to G00 then ALL feeds will be G00
from there. "I" want to be able to change the feed in ONE place.
Is This Possible ?

Thanks

i'm trying to change the feed at the top.
like ;
Feed = 6
then ;
Code "g31 F[Feed] X"&PosMove

that way i can change the feed in one area. is this possible ?

or even have two feeds
Feed1 = 6
Feed2 = 10

Thanks daniell,
if i put that at the beginning, after it hit G00 the rest of the
script will be in G00 mode. and i'm already going 6imp.
Thanks again



those aren't feed moves, but axis moves

below is the code i use to probe IDs. i like to know how to
use feed move. i want to be able to change the feed at the top instead
throughout the script. is this possible ? i tried Ffeed, but it laughed at me.
Thanks for any help !

NegMove = -10
PosMove = 10
Feed = 6


'probing = XY ID
'probe dia. = tapered till tip - - tip .104"
NegMove = -10
PosMove = 10
Code "G91 G31 F6 X"&NegMove            'X axis
While IsMoving()
Wend
SetOEMDRO(800,0)
Code "G00 X.2"
While IsMoving()
Wend
Code "G31 F6 X"&PosMove
While IsMoving()
Wend
Xdro = GetOEMDRO(800)
SetOEMDRO(800,Xdro/2)
While IsMoving()
Wend
Code "G90 G00 X0"
While IsMoving()
Wend
