I downloaded the mpaster X8 post processor. Updated post, control, and machine def to X9.
Trying to use the post for a 4 axis HMC (B rotary axis).
I make the Top plane the WCS, Front plane is the Tplane --- no B axis index (should be B0.0) when i post.
However everything seems to be working fine when I change the Tplane to another plane.
In this case I do get B index moves, which is what I want:
WCS Top, with Tplane Right outputs B90.0
WCS Top, Tplane Back -- B180
WCS Top, Tplane Left -- B-90.0
Is there a way to get the post to output B0.0 ?
thanks
Bret
