x (-) negative hardinge lathe post

[Anonymous]

Hey guys, so im posting to a hardinge lathe with an inverted x axis (program needs to read negative x axis to conduct a regular movement).  Im not sure what post can allow me to do that, or if i need to edit a post, im also unsure on how to do that as well.

The Fanuc Turning will give you negative X values, provided you set your Turret number to the correct value, as shown in the above photo
