HC44325: MAD CURVES MACHINING/SIDES DEFAULT VALUE IS INCORRECT

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• MFGPROG
  Cst level: 420-1
  MAD Curves Machining /sides default value is incorrect.
  The default values require modification thru interactive panels
  due to the lack of frame file syntax for PART.
  The current default value is DELTAZ, which has frame syntax.
  Scenario:
  Call up model containing MAD geometry
  Apply frame file with syntax for PART
  User will find no syntax for PART in CURVES/machining
  This will require a frame file to be built using DELTAZ or
  bottom plane as the part syntax is translated to DELTAZ.
  
  The possible By-Pass is to modify interactively the tool
  positioning type in the Curves Machining panel.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

•  INCIDENT DIAGNOSIS:
  MAD Curves Machining /side default value is incorrect.
  The default values require modification thru interactive panels.
  
    ====>due to the lack of frame file syntax for PART.
  The current default value is DELTAZ, which has frame syntax.
  

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED ON
    CATIA VERSION 4 RELEASE 2.1 REFRESH 1 GA level  (FREL421R1)
  
   TECHNICAL EXPLANATION FOR THE CORRECTION:
    ====>There is no frame file syntax for PART because it has to
  be the default value.
  This problem is now corrected and DELTAZ or BOTTOM(plane) Tool
  positioning modes are set only if matching syntaxes are present
  in frame file (i.e. DELTA Z VALUE =  or BOTTOM PLANE =)
  Note that if these two syntaxes are present in frame, BOTTOM
   PLANE will the chosen one.
   ANSWER AND POSSIBLE BY-PASS:
  As indicated in Free Text, the possible By-Pass is to modify
  interactively the tool positioning type in the Curves Machining
  panel.
  

Temporary fix
