    Modify 5 Axis Post

    I just completed modification's on the Generic Fanuc 5 X Mill.pst that comes with X3 so that it will post out correct A & B moves on a Haas VF3 & a VF4. The 3 is B rotation & A tilt in -Y axis & the 4 is A rotation & B tilt in -X axis. All is good except G28 at end of operation, which I want to change.( only the (2)G28's I have outlined , & make them, G90's , & do away with the X.0, which I have also outlined in picture attached. Thank's in advance .

    Your 1st "G28" is output in the "ptlchg" section
    the 2nd ( or last ) is output on the "peof" (eof= end of file) section

    *** copy the post ***

    open the post, insert " this one," on the line you think controls the G28 before the ,e$
    save, but don't close
    and repost .... use this method to fine tune the editting location

    anything you put in quotes is the string that will appear in the NC-code
    eg
    n$, "( hElloW )", e$ will output N1 ( hElloW)......not N1 ( HELLOW )

    :cheers: FANTASTIC !!

    Thank you very much, Steve. Never been able to find that info before to change things. Between the n$ & the e$ was what I have been looking for. I know you are probably limited on what you can change , but with this , it's enough.
