Hi,

In V5, I would like to know if there is any variable for extracting the type of the machine?
As of now we can get machine name using %MFG_MACHINE_NAME

I would like to see something like %MFG_MACHINE_TYPE

And then in the output I could see if it is a Mfg3AxisMachine or Mfg3AxisWithTableRotationMachine or Mfg5AxisMachine or MfgHorizontalLatheMachine or MfgVerticalLatheMachine or MfgMultiTurretLatheMachine

I got these above mentioned "Supported/Inherited types" from the language browser. So I am thinking there might be some MFG variable to extract these strings. As of now the only way to do is by using VB. On a side note there is small typo in the documentation for using this property(image below)

Thanks.
