    UPG post output problem

    Even though this section of the 'zone is about as dead as the geometric forum, I have more faith in the experts here to help me with my problem in a timely manner.

    I've generated a custom post for my Fadal 4020 using FadalCNC88 as a base. I'm having a disconnect somewhere that is resulting in all my D words outputting to D01 regardless of the tool, like so:

    N441 (1/8 4 FLUTE CRB EM)
    N442 T10 M06
    N443 G70
    N444 G90 G00 X.9118 Y-.9975 S5000 M03 E4
    N445 Z1.6 H10 M08
    N446 G01 Z.7765 F5.
    N447 G41 D01 X.6737 Y-.9213 F10.

    I've toggled the -Define Compensation Number- in the Misc tab to a couple different numbers resulting in the expected addition to the correct tool number (so that's working properly) but when back at 0 the D goes back to 01 for all tools.

    I've also toggled the -D Offset Register- in the Mill 2D tab on and off, but that has no effect and I can't find how to properly set up that registry.

    Any ideas? Hand editing is going to be a bit of a pain with long codes...

    I've used a 3016L with the 88 controller before.
    It didn't need the D number for cutter comp.

    if you still need to know this
    COMP_OFFSET=20
    should be in the source file, this controls offset output
    20 would mean D become 20+

    T1 would give D20

    hope helps
