Can you do conditional execution but not in a subroutine in PathPilot? I'm trying to do this:

IF [#5400 EQ 516] G52 X1.2129 Y-1.0493 Z0.4972 (Position Tool #516)
IF [#5400 EQ 502] G52 X1.0592 Y-2.4673 Z0.5034 (Position Tool #502)
IF [#5400 EQ 501] G52 X1.0662 Y-3.8448 Z0.0381 (Position Tool #501)

But I get an error on the "IF" word. I've never used subroutines or conditional execution in gcode before.

Each if needs a matching endif, where oh-numbers are used for the matching. Your code should be something like

o1 if [#5400 EQ 516]
G52 X 1.2129 Y -1.0493 Z 0.4972 (Position Tool #516)
o1 endif
o2 if [#5400 EQ 502]
G52 X 1.0592 Y -2.4673 Z 0.5034 (Position Tool #502)
o2 endif
o3 if [#5400 EQ 501]
G52 X 1.0662 Y -3.8448 Z 0.0381 (Position Tool #501)
o3 endif


This assumes that o1, o2, o3 are not used elsewhere, even in subroutines, so you'll need to set up and follow some rules for keeping track of these.

Thanks, I'll try that

o3 endif

Even better, since the various cases are mutually exclusive, would be
o1 if [#5400 EQ 516]
G52 X 1.2129 Y -1.0493 Z 0.4972 (Position Tool #516)
o1 elseif [#5400 EQ 502]
G52 X 1.0592 Y -2.4673 Z 0.5034 (Position Tool #502)
o1 elseif [#5400 EQ 501]
G52 X 1.0662 Y -3.8448 Z 0.0381 (Position Tool #501)
o1 endif
