Lathe sub spindle posting as Z axis

Greeting @tkelch27

You should check variables which are related with stock/part transfer.
For example
if variable stck_final_z$ is giving you  final Z position of your transfer operation,  check  Format Assignments and Initializations section in your post
fmt "Z" 2 stck_init_z$          
fmt "Z" 2 stck_final_z$          
fmt "Z" 2 stck_chuk_st_z$       
fmt "X" 2 stck_chuk_st_x$       
fmt "B" 2 stck_chuk_end_z$       
fmt "X" 2 stck_chuk_end_x$       
fmt "B" 3 stck_chuk_st_dz$       
fmt "U" 3 stck_chuk_st_dx$       
fmt "B" 3 stck_chuk_end_dz$     
fmt "U" 3 stck_chuk_end_dx$      
fmt "Z" 2 stck_clear$            
fmt "X" 2 stck_tool_x$          
fmt "Z" 2 stck_grip$   

if you want to learn meaning of the predefined  variables I can share you dropbox link where you can download all the MasterCam related files 

in our example if I change        fmt "Z" 2 stck_init_z$    to  fmt "B" 2 stck_init_z$   My output will be  B120. instead of Z120.
