Not sure if you are just making finishing passes or multi locations but here is a sample of how I have used it.
I inserted your program but edit as needed.

Hi all. I have purchased and older (1987) Daewoo Puma cnc lathe with a 6T control (Fanuc?) to add to my shop. I have 2 newer Haas cnc mills but haven't run a cnc lathe in a long while.

Did you guys ever get your Haas monitors replaced and working with LCD screens. I have a monitor on my 2001 TM1 that is not displaying anymore, or it takes hours for it to finally come up and...

Hi Pondo, Thanks for the reply.

I have a haas vertical mill. I do understand and have used your methods. I guess I am just being lazy but I want to try and avoid having the WPC stated more...

I post my programs using work coordinates G54 thru G59 from surfcam. After I run or setup a part the tool moves to a clearance location based on the work coordinate G111 called from a sub routine...

Thanks for the response dertsap,

In regards to the tool setting and probe, I am most interested in scanning surfaces. I figured if I had the probe and macro capability to do that, the tool...

I know this might sound crazy but I need/want to have the capability of running macros, a 4th axis, scan probing and automaic tool-setting on my perfectly good Haas TM1, with 10 spot tool changer and...

Hi Scallops,

Thanks for your reply, I tried your suggestion in my postform.m file but it doesn't output in the format style you describe. maybe you could copy/paste your post here and I will...

Hi Sinderal,

Thankyou for your help, I like what you have in your post and am going to try and utilize some of what your post can do into my own. Where can I read more on how to do the file...

I see in the Haas manual a G53 is a non-modal coordinate selection though I don't see a way to capture a random location and designate it as the place to got to for part clearance. I do not have...

I tried what you suggested but that is not quite what I am looking for. I still either edit in my operations list or in the nc code, and I use/have a 10 pocket tool change, so the numbers don't...

I post my programs to multiple size mills. I would like to use a common sub routine call that "moves to a operator select location at the machine" .

What I currently do is move to a suitable...

I want the Surfcam mpost to output the toolheader information for each toolpath in an operation list, even if it repeats the same tool. This way I wouldn't have to post multiple times then copy and...

I would also be interested. How far are you along with a working interface?
Would this only signal/initiate a positional index or does it do more? Will this work with just the available user...

Here is what I wrote and use for a warm up program. No macro, but it does use an internal sub - edit as needed.
