never mind found one that works correctly
We have a new HAAS ST30, we have a Gibbs POST that posts everything great but the X values are reversed (ie X1. = X-1.)
Before I start looking through the machine settings, anyone know off hand if there is a setting to reverse the values?
Thanks guys CHEERS!

1) 45 setting will change the direction of movement of the X-axis,
2) Advanced Editor allows you to change the sign - on the + sign for all X values in the program.
3) Try to change the construction of the part geometry in a computer program, the value for X in the construction of the geometry should be positive.
Instead of changing machine parameters, why not talk to Gibbs about getting the post corrected so that it posts correctly? There may even be a setting in there that you are missing. I know in Partmaker each tool has a check box to allow you to specify "negative diameter". I would think there is something similar in Gibbs. That would make more sense than messing with parameters in the machine. Make the software follow what the machine is setup for, not the other way around.
Just my $0.02.
