Need Help!- Fanuc 21i Lathe Post

[lkenney]

We run a 2000 Takisawa EX-108 Lathe with a Fanuc 21i Controller. We have the Surfcam 2 1/d plus Lathe module for Velocity 5.1 and ealier. I am working with the post now to try to match what we need and have been hard coding on a PC with Note book. The biggest problem is that all my X axis calls are posted as a Negative instead of a Positive as our tooling is at the rear of the machine and working in the +X -Z quadrant. I can't find anycall to change this. What am I missing. I have tried all the Fanuc Lathe posts that come with the program.

We are getting too busy to hand code now and really need to get this post working.

thanks

Lowell

I knew that there had to be a place to change the sign to work with this standard type cnc lathe.
1. RevSigns x # List of letters to reverse signs
2. RevSigns # List of letters to reverse signs

#1 is the way it was in the PostLib.L file
#2 is how it looks now and it works
