Aspire post processor question

[bcondon]

Ok, so I have aspireV1 and V2 installed but never used the toolfiles
produced and what I noticed is that my partworks files start with:

'SHOPBOT FILE IN INCHES
IF %(25)=1 THEN GOTO UNIT_ERROR 'check to see software is set to standard
C#,90 'Lookup offset values
'
'Turning router ON
SO,1,1
PAUSE,2
'
'Toolpath Name = MontelloBasePlateInternalCtout_.25S
'Tool Name = Straight 1/4"

and ends with:

'
'Turning router OFF
SO,1,0
J2,0.000000,0.000000
END
'
UNIT_ERROR:
C#,91 'Run file explaining unit error
END


How do I turn this on to be included in Aspire. I just get the code with the datapoints and tha is all.

Thanks for all the help!

Bob,

You could edit the post that is in the Aspire user data PostP folder to make a custom one for yourself or you should just be able to add the one (copy and paste) from the PartsWorks PostP folder.

The new ones in Aspire 3.0 have those lines added.

I see that you said Aspire 1 and 2, so the PostP folder is in the program folder for those.

Scott,

That worked perfectly by editing the post processor.

I had never edited the post processor before so the learning exercise was great! (and easy!)

Thanks for the advice. I wanted to put in more checks
asking the operator if vacuum was on and table was clear...
