Did the Modal setting not work for you?

You might want to mention what machine control and post your using??;)

Open your post in Notepad.

Then look for line 535. Change the letter at the end of this line to a 'y' and save the file. This should take care of it.

burrman & the one,
i didn' really quite under stand the modal concept & the one, i was trying different post changes & found the the line 535 and changed it to y.
Thank both of you for your replies it will save me a lot of time editing my programs.
Yhanks again David.

SSOptical,
The modal thing would be sort of like saying, "If you've already told me, Dont tell me again unless the data has changed!"

So like tool changing set to modal y, means if the first operation has a .25 endmill and the second operation uses a .25 endmill, there would be no need to print the tool information again in the code. If it was set to N, then .25 would print out in both features.

Setting the feeds to Y would mean only print out the feeds when they "Change", having it set to N would mean "Always" print out the feeds.

Anyway

BurMan, Thank's For The Modal Lesson.
SSOPTICAL.
