System Flags

Sometimes it is desirable to control the basic behavior of the post processor within the program file.

Several system flags/variables can be SET_ON/SET_OFF or be initialized and influence the flow of the post processor.

Variable	Default	Block	Usage
CIR_INTERP	SET_ON	ORIGIN CHANGE: BEGINNING OF TAPE:	If SET_OFF; all circular motions will be broken into linear motions according to the tolerance defined in the DFPOST circular motion section.
NO_SUBROUT	SET_OFF	ORIGIN CHANGE: BEGINNING OF TAPE:	If SET_ON subroutines will not be created.
TRANS_MATX TRANS_MATY TRANS_MATZ	0.0	ORIGIN CHANGE: BEGINNING OF TAPE: TOOL CHANGE:	The TRANS_MAT values are added to any coordinates before they are put into the program file.
ROT_MAT1 ROT_MAT2 ROT_MAT3 ROT_MAT4 ROT_MAT5 ROT_MAT6 ROT_MAT7 ROT_MAT8 ROT_MAT9	1,0 0.0 0.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 1.0	ORIGIN CHANGE: BEGINNING OF TAPE	The ROT_MAT rotation matrix multiplies any coordinates before they are put into the program file.
CUT_FILE	SET_OFF	ALL BLOCKS	If SET_ON, the OUTPUT file is truncated.
