    i have a tnc 355 iso post processor for 3X mill and it works perfectly ( thanks to BM 150 )
    All what you have to do is to change the first two lines
    N110 G21
    N120 G0 G17 G40 G49 G80 G90
    by
    N110 % ''number of the program'' G71
    N120 G0 G17 G40 G90
    and the end
    N460 M5
    N470 M30
    %
    By
    N460 M2
    % ''number of the program'' G71

    just fix the arc center type to absolute and the arc breaks to don't breaks arcs , allow 360 degree arcs

    you had to close every mill drill cycles so the program will be little bit longer

    i thinks it is a temporary solution till you found what you need

    Do you want the first and last lines changed so it outputs with the need to change?

    Thanks for the quick reply and good information!
    This will be tested, but is it not necessary with * .MMD and *.CONTROL files also to make it work?
    Those located in the folder CNC_MACHINES and usually called the same as * .pst file

    Perfect, thanks for that!

    seems to work fine but does not write the M06 line after the tool change, anyone know how to change it?

    ok, I did not find anything either about the tool change in pst file so that explains why.
