Fanuc line numbering

Many Fanuc control users do not want line numbers, except they want to sequentially number the tool changes.

You can do this with the following steps:

  1. Either remove all the occurrences of N<SEQ> in the post, or make sure that all occurrences are modal and set the Block Increment in FeatureCAM to 0.
  2. Use the following line as the tool change in the Start format. This line sets a variable, tc, to 1 and outputs it in the format for <SEQ>:
    N[<SEQ>:tc=1] T<TOOL> M6 ( TOOL <TOOL>
    [uppercase(<TOOL-NAME>)] )<EOB>
  3. Use the following line as the tool change in the Tool Change format:
    N[<SEQ>:tc=tc+1] T<TOOL> M6 ( TOOL <TOOL>
    [uppercase(<TOOL-NAME>)] )<EOB>
