i have a small change i would like to make to my post

when i put a wear comp in it kicks this out

N60 G54
N70 G00 G90 X-2.1514 Y-.5 S6000 M03
N80 G43 Z.25
N90 Z.1
N100 G01 Z-.1 F6.42
N110 G41 D3 X-1.6514 F40. <------- on a regular machine this would be fine
N120 G03 X-1.1514 Y0. I0. J.5
N130 G02 X1.1514 I1.1514 J0.

I need that "D" value gone JUST after the G41 or G42

any help would be greatly appreciated

thanks

If you need the D value "gone" just comment it out in the file.----#

First...make a backup of your current post
If anything stuffs up in editing, you can restore it back to original

Open the PST file with any text editor,
and find

pccdia          #Cutter Compensation
      #Force Dxx#   
      if prv_cc_pos$ <> cc_pos$ & cc_pos$, prv_tloffno$ = c9k
      sccomp
      if cc_pos$, tloffno$

change it to

pccdia          #Cutter Compensation
      #Force Dxx#   
      if prv_cc_pos$ <> cc_pos$ & cc_pos$, prv_tloffno$ = c9k
      sccomp
      # if cc_pos$, tloffno$

The # at this position stops the tloffno$ from being output on the block but still allows the G40/G41/G42 to be oututted to the NC code.
