hello guys, please, does someone know a system variable that will :
... return 0 in this case :
.... VC1 = custom
.... G56 HA
... return HA in this case :
.... G56 HA
.... VC1 = custom

thank you

are you looking for VZOF?

deadlykitten · Aug 2, 2017

hy Mtndew / no, VZOF* is related to G15

i am looking for the possibility to read active tool Z_offset, that should be 0 before G56 and Z_offset after G56

i looked a few times over the list of system variables, but nothing so far ...

Oh, how about this:

Mtndew · Aug 2, 2017

I get it now, you want to read the ACTIVE tool Z offset.
I'll keep looking

If this doesn't work for you, I'm out of ideas lol:

VHCOD delivers :
... 0 if located before G56
... delivers 10001, 10002, etc, thus not the offset_value, but the offset_link

using VHCOD to deliver active_offset requires also VTOHT inside a conditional code, because arg2 must be <>0 in VTOHT [ arg1, arg2 ]

Code:

    IF [ VHCOD EQ 0 ] N1
                 GOTO N2


      N1 VC1 = 0
         GOTO N3


      N2 VC1 = VTOHT [ VTLCN , VHCOD ] ( or VTOFH [ VTLCN ] )
         GOTO N3


      N3

thus it works, but is too much code

i could put it inside a soubroutine, etc, but i am looking for a simple variable ... thank you Mtndew
