Brock,
I found part of what I want in your .tmp which gives me the "G80
Z1.0"; I added:"#IFCHG(#WKPLN)< G80 Z#ZPOS>" into my "@FXD*" sections.
I still need to post the following logic in my drill cycles (#1 is already
taken care of above):
(1) If the workplane changes, cancel the drill cycle and go to the
clearance plane
(2) If the workplane has changed, test which workplane is active and output
specific code for axis rotation.
(For G54: G68 X____ Y____ R#507)
(For G55: G68 X____ Y____ R#508)
An example of the desired code is below in my first post.
Any other ideas out there?
Chris
