Using through coolant in NX to post into program
Using through coolant in NX to post into program
(OP)
If you right click on a tool and go to object then custumize and go to customizable items in the drop down. Then you can add coolant through to your tool parameters as a check box. I am trying to add a custom cammand that looks at this box and if it is checked then add through coolant. If not checked then do nothing.
Im not sure how to have the post look directly at this one check box within a custom command?
If anyone knows of a way to accomplish this i would really appreciate it!
Thanks.

This seems like it shouldnt be that difficult... I just cant wrap my arms around it.
RE: Using through coolant in NX to post into program
This way it just doesnt output an M code.
global mom_tool_coolant_through
if [info exists mom_tool_coolant_through] {
set mom_tool_coolant_through "M88"
}
This way it outputs an M code whether i have the coolant through button selected or not.
global mom_tool_coolant_through
if [info exists mom_tool_coolant_through] {
set mom_tool_coolant_through "M88"
}
I appreciate any help you can give.
