Having a little problem with the post output on VM 5. I am using the General post and when I post a 2-1/2D profile I get the following line:
N7G03X0.612Y-0.218I0.612J-0.219K0.R0.001
My controller choked when it gets both IJK parameters and R parameter. I have used the post editor to make sure that the General post is set to not give both IJK and R parameters, but I still get them. Any ideas how to get it to only provide IJK?

In the Post Processor Generator, select the Post you are using. In the Circle Tab, in the Output format select I,J,K only and save and exit. This should output I,J,K only

Got it fixed. I had upgraded from 4.0 and had not uninstalled it. 5.0 was looking at the 4.0 post folder. So when I edited it to only output IJK it was the one in the 5.0 post folder. Now that I am pointing at the proper folder everything is working perfectly.

Thanks,
