Re: Developing Post Processors Mits 3015LVP & old Trumpf/Bosch
Trying to figure out cutter comp - with all the various machines, materials, and parameters in the shop, it works best for us to fight offset at the machine. Les got me started with OnOffsetRight(/Left/None). Just basically turning it on is already getting workable code for the Mits lasers - they j...

Re: G0/G1 moves
G0 is a command to move as fast as possible. As such there isn't any way to specify a feed rate. Some controllers do have a separate control that allows you to slow down the G0 speed but this isn't something the g-code has any control over.

Re: Job Costing Plugin
I just did some experiments with this plugin and it appears to be quite broken at the moment. I will have a go at fixing it but this may take a while.

Re: German Translation
The Linux release tends to lag behind the Windows releases so 7.1.35 isn't available. I need to do an update soon.

Re: "No Tools Available"....?
If you want to cut with a drag knife you need to first create a drag knife tool. The tool syou have defined are plasma tools, which cannot be used by the drag knife operation. The image you showed was of a milling/routing operation. Again if you are milling/routing you need to define a rotary tool. ...

Re: "No Tools Available"....?
You have SheetCam configured for both milling/routing and plasma cutting. It is showing 'no tools available' because you are trying to do a milling/routing operation but have no milling tools defined. You need to use a jet cutting operation for plasma. Are you just plasma cutting? If so go to Option...

Re: Need some help with settings
Looks like someone manually added lead ins. They tend to confuse SheetCam.

Re: modifying post processor for drilling
Are you using the 'PremierPlasma CNC floating head' post? I had a quick look at the post and if you just want to get rid of the referencing code when marking it's pretty easy to change. Edit the post and look for function OnPenDown() which should be near the middle of the file. The first two lines o...

Re: Can't find where Z values are coming from
The default tool set is always saved in the settings folder. The same goes for the default machine options.

Re: new to sheetcam, need help
In SheetCam go to Options->machine->post processor and click on the 'Edit post' button. Look for function OnPenUp() near the end of the file. Replace the function with this version: function OnPenUp() ihs = pierceHeight ~= 0 and cutHeight ~= 0 --enable IHS if both pierce and cut are non-zero post.Te...

This can be done with a post modification. What post are you using?

Re: Can't find where Z values are coming from
Looking at your job file you have a tool length offset defined for your tool. This is added to the overall Z height.

Re: Offset Open Lines
When you import a drawing a box pops up with a number of options. Is that set to metric? If so try setting it to inches.

Re: German Translation
Thank you. I will add the translation to the next release. Was this translation for the stable release or the development release?
