what if the vise is rotated 180 deg and you had 10 cutters and want them to run sequentially

Yes MLS that is what i meant i am transforming toolpath. But in the post it is spitting out an A180. i only want to rotate program x and y 180. i get alarm at machine(machine does not support A)

i want to rotate the toolpath ONLY not the part not the fixture

Thanx for the info, after looking up that switch and it being on (1) i am assuming this machine has the highspeed function. Could it be that my post is not posting that m code i am using a post modified by my reseller for this haas.
