Nope, not that I know of, usually get the estimated run time at the Predator Simulation when you run the backplot. If you don`t have level 2 Predator then no run time I`m afraid.

V25 also has the run time in the simulator, nothing is produced in the G code (Comments) where you can read the time.

May be someone out there who has written a script for it, I am not sure but I think someone did have a go a couple years back but I never heard if they got it done.

bummer... we dont have the backplot with predator- i use a different editor that has one plus it estimates the cycle times. wish i could extract it. oh well, nno big deal
