BTW, Do you ever use the FADAL Function menu to program at the control. Really don't like the way the FADAL canned functions output G code and was wondering if there is any way to modify how the FADAL Functions output code.

I believe the controller versions are -1 through -5. As far as software versions, I don't know. The differences in controllers are software AND hardware.
I use cad/cam for all my programming so I don't use the function menu. You will have to contact Fadal to see if the function menu can be modified. I did use it once just to see how it worked and never had any use for it since. I'm not a fan of shop floor programming anyways. The only time I actually program at the controller is when doing minor edits and small quick jobs like square ups, small numbers of holes, etc....
