Insert g54 into post processor.

[jjcastro]

We have a new Dooson lynx 220lc lathe running mastercam lathe.  I have loaded a generic fanuc post processor for the fanuc oi controller.  I cannot get the g54 to post in the program.  Can anyone help me on this? Thanks

Are you changing the switch in the mi for the operations to have it output?

 

From the notes of the post:

# Following Misc. Integers are used:
#
# mi1 - Work coordinate system: (home_type)
#       -1 = Reference return / Tool offset positioning.
#       0 = G50 with the X and Z home positions.
#       1 = X and Z home positions.
#       2 = WCS of G54, G55.... based on Mastercam settings.

In each operation you will need to use the 2 in the mi1 to get the G54 output.

 

HTH(Hope that Helps)
