I'm having trouble with my dealer coming off with the post cd.Everytime I ask about it he says he will send it to me,but I have not seen it yet.They have a guy who does post work for them and I get the vibe that the want me to come to then for post work.I have done a lot of tweaking myself with help from you guys,but that post cd would sure be nice.

Hi Mark
Try using the edit jump[ routine this should out put a Z value with G0 then repeat drill cycle for next hole.Let me know if you have any other problems that need worked out I'll take a look see if I can help. I had to edit the post for the edit jump routine to work right.
Hi John
What kind of dynapath control is it.I have a post for a 30 and 40 that work great.As what Mark said about drill clearance plane try using edit jump this shoud output Z rapid move with a G0 then force drill cycle and position for
next hole.If your using ver 9 the post will take clearance height as set in cycle parm. page and post the way a describe above.
I'm getting wron deg output with my post . table rotates clockwise to get from 0 to 90.I'm doing work on 270 side but post is putting this out at B90.What I'm I looking for in post to change this around.I tried changing the cw-ccw sign option ,but that didn't seem to work.
thanks in advance H>M>
