how can i get a rotary output at every tool change?
it will put it out if the index is diffrent
i want to to put it out even if the index is the same
i tried to fool with the post but only got it to put out an index after every line
i want this to keep operators from starting on the wrong side of the pallet
using the generic fanuc 4x mill

Really depends on how the post is outputting the rotary.

You probably want to output it in the ptlchg section of the post, after the tool is called ( pbld, n, *t, "M06", e). Somewhere after that you should add a line to force the rotary pbld, n, *cabs, e (or what ever variable is calling the rotary output.

Of course you didn't say it it's V8, V9, or X. so this format will vary slightly.
