Hi,

I want to output in my shop doc, the workpiece main MCS coordenates.

This customization, can be done in the shop doc? or I have to customize my shop doc for postprocessing?

mom_prev_mcs_goto or mom_mcs_goto, this variables are for this task or I am wrong?

Thanks.
 
Hi Berri2
Which coords do you want, MCS relative to what? MCS relative to LCS, MSC relative to WCS? LCS relative to MCS?

Cheers

hi pracslipkerm,

I attach you a photo, the PMI icon taques 0,0,0 coordenates the origin. But I want this origin related with the workpice,
X100, Y75, Z60. How can I link my MCS to the Workpirce with some expressions maybe?.

Thanks

Have a look at the variables
mom_csys_origin (LCS coord relative to MCS) see if this is want you are after...
Other variables that may be what you want are
mom_machine_csys_matrix(9) mom_machine_csys_matrix(10) mom_machine_csys_matrix(11) (MCS coord relative to WCS)
Hope that helps

Cheers
