    Machine setup

    I have a live tool VTL with a C axis. Max diameter is 72" swing. Tool carousel has 24 tools. My question is how to set up my machine? I'm on a trial license, but I can't seem to get the given post to output my c moves. Screen shots of how I would do my machine set up would so help me out.

    If you were to send me the EMS and post I could tell you what's wrong. Either the Post or EMS is set up wrong

    I'm pretty sure it was my machine setup and tool setup. I didn't put my drill in the right direction. Instead of a Z+, it was set as a turning tool. Once I see it a few more time and get my machine setups saved it'll be a breeze.
