I'm creating a post using EC2015R2 for a ProtoTRAK TMX control. In their notes, they require the Tapping Cycle (G84) to have a "B" value where B=Begin Depth. The example in their manual is " G84 X0. Y0. Z-2. R.1 B0. Q.05"
It seems the "B" value is the top of the thread. My question is how can I edit the code constructor to output the "B" value in that line. I can hard code it as "zero" but for a recessed hole that may not be best.
For drilling cycles they don't specify the top of the hole, just the "R" value which is the rapid position above the hole (retract plane).
Any help is appreciated.
I did, took some coding though.
It does need a "B" in the code so that had to be hard coded then user defined values for "R" and "B"
Here's what the code constructor for "Tapping Cycle" looks like.
