jog velocity from mm/min to mm/sec

Hi is it possible to change the velocity from mm/min to mm/sec


Marius

Hallo Marius,

There are two possibilities

1. Change the code frome gmoccapy
2. Change the velocities using hal connection with scales

What is the reason for your wish to change that?
It is unusual.

Hi Norbert,

Reason, we have different machines (like multicam) who work with mm/sec, we would like to work with standard programs on those machines

Marius

It would be simple to create a script that converts your F-codes from mm/s to mm/m while the file loads. And since you will likely need a conversion script anyway if you are going to want to run code made for other machines.

Is true, only challenge will be , if you want to work with the different machines you have to be aware which machine you are working on, as in MDI mode F60 on one machine will be F3600 on the onther one.

Perhaps you could remap the F-word?
