Hello,
We currently run Mastercam 2017 and have a Haas ST-10Y C-Axis lathe we are having minor post related issues. When sending code to the machine with C-Axis toolpaths such as "Cross Contour" milling operations, the code generates a "G18" which our operator claims to be reason for the machine to alarm out. When manually editing to a "G19", the program runs flawlessly. I was wondering how I go about adjusting the generic post in Mastercam to utilize "G19" as opposed to "G18" by default. We program many machines, so I am taking the operators word that this is the problem as I have had no time of my own to investigate the issues personally.
*** P.S. - The generic post we are using is "GENERIC HAAS ST 4X MT LATHE" and was suggested by a Mastercam support tech.
