Post Processor for Cam

Hey All.

 I am trying to get an old machine tool working, What I have is a retrofit Supermax YCM40 3 axis milling machine with an Anilam Crusader M control. I can use the post to do most things but when I get to anything circular the post will not include the x,y,i,j, on the same line, sometimes it will drop the x and sometimes it will drop the y. The machine needs to have it all so it will not error out (circular error). I am just learning how to edit post processors now but for the life of me I cannot understand why it drops either the x or y coordinate.

I have attached the Post that I am using and the Fusion project I was working on. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for looking at this. I will try to get pictures of what the machine screen has on it.

Hi there,

It appears that significant changes have been made to the post processor, and it is also an older version. Additionally, the IJK values are different, assuming they work with your controller.

If x,y,z.. has the same value as the previous value, in a next call it will not write those value.
Here are some of the ways to force the values 
If you want to specifically force X and Y for G02 and G03 moves,

use 

xOutput.reset();  
yOutput.reset();

The below image: Force X Y values only for circular path in XY plane.

I was able to load and run programs into my machine and they are now working. I have attached working post for Anilam Crusader M .
