    B-axis limit on Fadal

    We have a 1992 Fadal 6030 with the Numatix CNC retrofit. The problem I am having is that the B-axis will only rotate 21 deg. one way and 28 deg. the other way. Is there a way to change this setting on the axis card for more swing? I am thinking that this a Fadal upgrade that will cost mucho dollars. I was hoping the Numatix retrofit would change it but it still uses the Fadal control cards.
    Thanks in advance.

    The axis eproms control the limits of the movement for the axes. The standard eproms allow a G90 movement of B+15 and B-265 degrees. A total sweep of 110 degrees.
