CREATE PROCESS

Up

Command

CREATE_PROCESS <process type>, <process number>, <tool number>

Create a process. Once created, use the SET_PROC_DATA command to set the process type.

Then use SET_PROC_DATA again, once more for each process parameter.

Parameters

<process type>

Process type, must be one of:

MILL_DRILL

MILL_CONTOUR

MILL_ROUGH

MILL_SURFACE

MILL_THREAD_MILL

MILL_CUTOFF

LATHE_DRILL

LATHE_CONTOUR

LATHE_ROUGH

LATHE_THREAD

<process number>

Process number.

<tool number>

Tool number.

Example

CREATE_PROCESS MILL_CONTOUR, 3

Note. An alternative method to create a process is to use the LOAD_PROCESS command to load a saved process file, then change the appropriate data using the [SET_PROC_DATA]] command.

Workaround for creating Volumill process

create_process MILL_ROUGH, 1, 1

SET_CUSTOM_PROC_NAME 1, "Custom_Plugin_VoluMill"

SET_VOLUMILL_PROC_DATA 1, HighFeed, 10000

SET_VOLUMILL_PROC_DATA 1, RPM, 6000

SET_VOLUMILL_PROC_DATA 1, Entryclear, 10

SET_VOLUMILL_PROC_DATA 1, ExitClear, 10

(dirty workaround until creation of Custom Process types are available)
