best post processor for HAAS TM-1

I have a Haas TM-1.
What is the best post configuration for me to use?
The haas.cps -Generic HAAS works but only after I get ride of a few lines of code (example = all G69 must go for it to run at all).
I am also not seeing where I can use my own G-location. Lets say I want to use G110. Right now I have to go through the code and change it myself?

Thanks you,
John

The current Haas Generic Post is...somewhat incorrect. There is a new generic to be had over HERE. Just search for HAAS and pick the Mill post

The second bit, will require a small amount of post modification.

Search this line:

if (workOffset != currentWorkOffset) {
        forceWorkPlane();
        writeBlock(gFormat.format(154), "P" + code);
        currentWorkOffset = workOffset;

And change it to this:

if (workOffset != currentWorkOffset) {
        forceWorkPlane();
        writeBlock(gFormat.format(103 + workOffset));
        currentWorkOffset = workOffset;

You will need to store the post processor in a new location. If you put it back into the generic folder it will be overwritten at next update.

Good. Fast. Cheap. Pick two.
