    can't change spindle direction?

    In solidcam 2017, using the fanuc 2013 turning post, in this facing operation (see screenshot), changing from CW to CCW both generate M3 spindle start codes (not M4, as i was expecting). Am I not understanding how to change spindle direction?

    Hi cryptopsy,

    Sounds like the post has been hard coded. I would check with the person you gave you the post.
