    G-codeguy,

    Got all your different type of deep drill P913's macro options. Going to do some testing as soon as my Hardinge machine comes open. I had P9135 in program memory and yes I can switch a 1 to a 0 or 0 to 1 think you...... Just needed to know parameter ( 10 ) bit 4= 0. Thanks for your time and patiences.

    Custom Paint Man :cheers:

Thanks.

    EDIT: Although you can drill 3 times the diameter with the first peck with 9135, it cuts succeeding pecks in half the same as the 9136 program. It appears to run like the 9136 program without the advantage of the Z variable. Probably why I originally abandoned it. You can run 3 times the diameter with 9136 also.
    The only thing I did was to add the lines for the G74 functions instead of G01.
    Otherwise it is the 9135 that came with the machine. Hardinge Conquest 42.
    Sucks to get old, huh? Everything hurts and half of it don't work no more...

    Checked out your site. Nice cars!

    If you have 9135 instead of 9136, then the format I gave you won't work. Personally I would load the 9136 program listed elsewhere in this thread. 9135 does not give you the advantage of not cutting air.

    I noticed in a later post of yours that you wanted larger peck ratios than mentioned in the OP. The 9138 program allows you to specify any ratio for the first 3 pecks. If you would rather not have to type in the extra variables, you can modify all the peck ratio depths in the 9137 program.

    If you want 5 times the diameter for the first peck, change the 3 to a 5 here

    #27=#7*3

    Same thing for the #27=#7*2.25 (2nd peck) and #27=#7*1.25 (3rd peck)

    This block #27=#7 (4th peck) would have to be changed to #27=#7*? You can't change the .5 ratio without making several more modifications to the program.

    If you are using a .125 drill and specify .25 for the minimum peck (C-value), then the program will only run the first 2 peck ratios before jumping to a loop that uses .25 for the remaining pecks (as currently written).

    If you want something changed in the subs, you can always let me know what changes you'd like. I will try to make them for you.

    Newc,

    Sorry for not replying I have been taking care of my second business Eastcoast Refinish LLC. I have not had a chance to edit P9135 but I am going to edit my program and update your changes to see how it works. Thanks for your input.

    I know this is an old thread, but asking about macros other than deep drilling seemed appropriate here given the title. My 1997 Conquest T42 with 18TB control has only canned routines for turning pockets, not facing them. Did Hardinge ever publish a macro (or has anyone ever made one) similar to the G70/71, but for facing?
