So if there's no place in Fusion to define the XY home, I was thinking I might set the value in the post and offer the user the option to change the default. I assume that would be done using this mechanism of Property and Values. I just didn't want to redefine that XHome and YHome if I could pull the values in from Fusion directly.
Xander:
writeMoveBlock(gMotionModal.format(0), homeX, homeY);"
Yes, this is the section where I saw the Home reference (Sorry... Xhome and Yhome, that was the "other" program). 🙂
So you've both given me some things to look at. I'm going to poke around myself first, to see If I can deconstruct what's there and modify it for my needs.

@Anonymous Are you using the post from this thread, it works a lot better than the generic one supplied with Fusion. Read through the whole thread and use the newest version. I would avoid using Radius for corners as it give a lot or errors as you'll see reading this thread and the one I linked to, Anilam controls have a lot of problems with arc moves.

CornerRad is only for Line to Line corners with a fillet. You can use it for Arc to Arc to Arc type contours. You're much better off with XY IJ or XY R output.

You can you Fanuc nc code on anilam cnc.
It's easy and more inaccurate!
Not so easy if you want to edit the program at the control though. The post I've modified works well, I haven't had any problems with it and how is the Fanuc code more accurate?

I don't use DNC I use a compact flash disk for transfer, I can see the advantage using G code for DNC though as the programs will be smaller. Have you tried without line numbers I think that should work and will reduce file size.

If the Conversational Anilam post is well written and the code has been filtered with the Smoothing options, the file size shouldn't matter that much. Conversational will probably still be bigger than G-Code. Other than that, there is no advantage to running G-Code in a 3300 control. I see G-Code as a disadvantage because you cant visually check the output. In 30 years of writing posts (10 of those years working for Anilam) I have found it is always better to get as close to the native language of the control. There are plenty of good Anilam 3300 posts available.
Most conversational controls will also read G-Code (Mazak, Heidenhain, Anilam). The manufacturer will almost Always recommend running in the native conversational format. I cant imagine Jerry Bouvier recommending G-Code. But more like saying it was an available option, if that's what you want to do.
I run my A3300 in Conversational.
