    Editing Alpha Standard 3 Ax Router post_part 2

    Thanks FrankCNC I solved the problem right away.
    I have a question.
    1-Is it possible to make sure that comments are not generated at first along with the program?
    2- How to delete the percent sign at the beginning of the program?
    That he also did not appear in the program. At least in the beginning.
    Viewed the entire postprocessor, but did not understand where to edit
    Thank you


    P.S.
    It would be ideal for the program to be generated from line N 10.

    To suppress the comments set $540 section of Post from 0 (zero) to 1 (one)

    $540 Suppress Operations List, START and Comments in NC code (1 = yes, 0 = No)
    1

    unfortunately this also suppresses the "START" at the beginning of the program which AlphaCam needs for line renumbering, Comms to the machine etc...
    Either hard code START in the $12 section of the Post

    $12 Main Program LEADING lines
    START

    or use a user variable

    $12 Main Program LEADING lines
    [ALPHACAM_START]

    and place the following in the $1000 section of the Post

    ALPHACAM_START (" ") = "START"

    To remove the % sign just delete the % sign in the $10 section of the Post near the beginning or place 2 (two) single apostrophe's in front of the % sign to prevent it being output.

    ''%

    If you also don't need the program number just delete :[PROGNUM] from the $12 section of the Post or place 2 (two) single apostrophe's in front of the it to prevent it being output.

    '':[PROGNUM]

    If you would like the Tool Name and Operation Description to be output as a comment in the program, place the following in the $80 Select New Tool section of the Post and before the N[N] T[T] line

    ([TNM])
    ([OPD])


    Hope this helps,

    Kind Regards,

    Hi,
    check this .
    % you can delete directly in a post. Comment which are in a code are generated automatically, you can switch off these comments by a $540 = 1

    Alphacam post and VBA macros, Autodesk HSM post.
