I think you want to check the Tooling section, not the Operation section. The tool section number for a face mill is 2420103, the operation section for face milling is 1030103.
#IF(JOS(TM_SECTION)=2420103)<#EVAL(what ever you want)>//Face Mill I have also attached a macro that I just recorded to help show which JOS variables are which. -----Original Message----- From: Michael Senack [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 02, 2001 1:20 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [mfg-smartcam] Job Operations Setup Section Numbers?? Thank you Frederick Lauzus for your help on changing jos(tl_len) when reading in a jsf file, to convert it to a jof file. My next question is, how do I find the "job operation setup section number" for a Face Mill? Why? When a Face Mill operation from a V4.5 jsf file is read into V11.5 the "cradius" and "sideang" are not correct. So what I would like to do is add an IF/ENDIF test of something like, IF(jos(???)=1030103 for Face Milling is true then change the cradius, sideang and the tl_len. My question is, I cannot find the appropriate Job Operation Data Tag to check. jos(op_type) returns 103.0 Any help is greatly appreciated. // Production_Milling 11.5 Windows 10/16/98 16:52:40 Macro File // w:\mcl\1.mcl // CREATED: 01/02/01 // // this is what a Face Mill operation from V4.5 comes in as... // JOS_CONTEXT_OPEN[BASEITEM=1, USERNAME="1"] JOS_FIELD_EDIT[FLDNAME="cradius", EXPR="0.031"] JOS_FIELD_EDIT[FLDNAME="sideang", EXPR="32000"] JOS_FIELD_EDIT[FLDNAME="tl_len", EXPR="32000"] JOS_CHANGES_PROMOTE[] JOS_CONTEXT_CLOSE[] // // this is what I would like it to look like so I can do a proper SHow Cut // JOS_CONTEXT_OPEN[BASEITEM=1, USERNAME="1"] JOS_FIELD_EDIT[FLDNAME="cradius", EXPR="0"] JOS_FIELD_EDIT[FLDNAME="sideang", EXPR="0"] JOS_FIELD_EDIT[FLDNAME="tl_len", EXPR="1"] JOS_CHANGES_PROMOTE[] JOS_CONTEXT_CLOSE[] Regards, Michael Senack, X354 Your local friendly neighborhood CNC Programmer ====================================================================== To find out more about this mailing list including how to unsubscribe, send the message "info mfg-smartcam" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ======================================================================
