    PCI align solid

    How do I include "align solid" command when creating a pci? Also I am having trouble figuring out how to create a filename and save the .ppf with the filename using pci.

    Thank You

    It depends, how are you aligning the solid? Using the Align Body For Milling command?

    You would have to create a PCI that uses the ASKDIGINFO command. Please reference the Edgecam Userguide (Help > Contents and Index) for all of your PCI documentation.

    To save the file to a specific filename using a PCI, it looks like the following:
    * Initialising command:- Part
    %InitCommand=cmd1=19,3
    %ClearMods=[cmd1]
    * Setting modifier 'Name^Browse...'
    %SetModifier=[cmd1],14,C:\TEST.ppf
    %InitDigInfo=gdh1
    %ExecCommand=cmdret=[cmd1],[gdh1]
    %FreeDigInfo=[gdh1]

    Good luck.

    Regards,
    Jeremiah
