New computer - lathe post outputs X instead of D

Recommended Posts

Just got a new computer and now trying to get it configured. Congig wasn't a problem but now trying to figure out how to import my right click menu.

One thing that puzzles me is my lathe post is outputting an x and radius rather than a D and diameter. It's the same machine and post but it's posting different code.

Anybody have any idea what I should look for to change it back to diameter?

:Edit: Old box was Windows 7, new box is Windows 10. Using Mastercam 2017.

this is the switch in my posts

dia_mult     : 2     #Multiplier for output on X axis (Neg. switches sign of X)

It must be a different switch in my post. Thanks for looking.

I've sent a z2g file to my mastercam retailer, hopefully they'll find it.
