I hope  I can get only .00001%  your  knowledge 

I am no one special just have 35+ years doing this is all and willing to share and try to help others as best I can.

Pass it on is all I ask of anyone I train and help.

Something has to define the pfn logic. In MPLMASTER there is this switch:

tseqno       : 2     #Output sequence number at toolchanges when omitseq = yes
                     #0=off, 1=seq numbers match toolchange number, 2=seq numbers match tool number

We then search the post to find where and how it was used:

ltlchg$          #Toolchange, lathe
. section not shown
. section not shown
. section not shown
. section not shown
      if not(synch_flg & tool_op$ = 67),     #Suppress tool output if cutoff during part xfer
        [
        if omitseq$ = 1 & tseqno > 0,
          [
          if tseqno = 2, n$ = t$
          pbld, *n$, [if home_type = -1, *sgcode], *toolno, e$
          ]
        else, pbld, n$, [if home_type = -1, *sgcode], *toolno, e$
        ]

mtlchg$          #Toolchange, mill
. section not shown
. section not shown
. section not shown
. section not shown 
      if omitseq$ = 1 & tseqno > 0,
        [
        if tseqno = 2, n$ = t$
        pbld, *n$, [if home_type = -1, *sgcode], *toolno, e$
        ]

pheader$         #Start of file
      pheader_custom
      if tseqno = 1 & omitseq$ = 1,
        [
        seqno$ = 1
        seqinc$ = 1
        n$ = seqno$
        ]

Then from there we can see what variables where defined and how we want to adapt it to the post we are using.

That has nothing to do with what you're trying to accomplish. It will be in the toolchange logic for the lathe tools is only a lathe post. If it is a mill and lathe post combined then it will be in both sections like I showed in what I posted up. I suggest watching Colin's youtube videos on Post editing. You have many things to learn and understand about MP post and how the process works and what it does.
