    Question Using bobcad with Boss control

    Does anyone know how to make the post put out a G75 before a G02-03. My boss control needs to see this before cutting a circle. If anyone has any ideas please let me know. Thank you for your help.

    If you always need this then it is simple. Go to the NC window under the setup>conversion window.

    In the 'Original' window put G02 in the 'Convert to' window put G75G02
    Do the same for G03.

    This will put the two codes on the same line I think. Do you have any other thoughts.

    Only 2 things I can think of.

    1) write a script to add these
    2) get post specific for this type output (free if you have the support option)
    or if there is one already in the posts (you should ask in the BobCad.com forum where someone might know or ask chris)

    This would be so easy if BobCad gave us a line feed output in the convert.

    Why not just generate the code then go in and add the G75?
