| Hi. I am pretty proficient editing mastercam posts, but am having a problem w/ V.Xmr2. When using any of my 4 axis posts I can not get it to put out a B for rotation. I have tried all the obvious settings like changing to horizontal and changing the axis about setting but can not get it to spit out B. Any help would be great as I am getting tired of changing these in the editer. Thanks, Sean. Last edited by grand master x; 11-08-2009 at 04:06 PM. |

| Machine definition may need to be modified from a vertical to a horizontal --your rotary axis would be attached to the X-axis giving an "A" output it needs to attach to the Y-axis for "B" outputs and defined as "B" |

| Did you change the format statement (fmt)? Find the cabs of cinc section (as shown below) and change the axis letter designation.
