Fanuc Error 114 Macro Help

[leperkoopa]

I have recently been gifted a macro program to deal with all the very large weld preps of different sizes and angles that I need to make for my current employer

The maker of the macro was unable to test things, although it seems relatively simple and should work as intended when I load this on my Femco Horizontal mill with FANUC Oi-MB controller I get error code 114 "Format Error In Macro"
This is all very new to me so I know Im doing something wrong
Code is inserted below.

(THIS PROGRAM WILL CUT A WELD PREP USING INSERT CUTTER WITH MATCHIN ANGLE TO PREP)
(I.E. A 45 DEG WELD PREP WILL USE A 45 DEG CUTTER)
(30 DEG WELD PREP USES A 30 DEG CUTTER)

IF [#127 LTE #130] GOTO 0511

Shouldn't it be LE instead of LTE for less than or equal to?

IF [#127 LE #130] GOTO 0511 is the correct format I believe.

(Sin=Opp./Hyp. Cos=Adj./Hyp. Tan=Opp./Adj.)

When I was a very young machinist an older machinist showed me a very easy way to remember my basic trigonometry.

This solved it for me thank you so much!

It was actually the Indian (Native American) Chief Sohcahtoa here.

Don't need images of Oscar's ass hanging around...

I never took a single trig class in high school. I learned from grumpy old machinist in the shop. Years later when I went back for my engineering degree I learned sohcahtoa.

This solved it for me thank you so much!

Glad I could help. for reference these are the basic conditional expressions
EQ- Equal to
LT- Less than
GT- Greater than
GE- Greater than or equal too
LE- Less than or equal too
There are many more to learn but those are a start.

This seems like such a powerful tool to use, and its something I feel would be really useful to me. Thank you for the help

There is a thread pinned here on macro's that has a ton of information in it that could help you and yes macro's are a powerful tool.
