    18-T Angle Parameter

    First post guys, someone might already of asked this one, but i searched and couldn't find it.
    I've started work at a small engineering firm as a programmer, that has 3 Ikegai Lathe machines with Fanuc controls. 2 have the 0-T system, 1 has the 18-T.
    On the 2 0-T machines, i have changed the parameter so enable angular turning (i.e G01 X50.0, A120.0 F.01 would put a 30' angle on the job), but i can't find the parameter to do it on the 18-T machine.
    Anyone any ideas?? it'll save loads of time working out sizes for each job.
    Cheers in advance

    You need to purchase the direct drawing dimension option from Fanuc GE.

    Damn it! i thought that would be the answer. was hoping it would be a simple parameter change like it was on the 0-T model.
    Cheers anyway
