Customizing Post Processor to output Subroutines/subprograms in G91.

Hello, I was wondering how to customize the Haas-Next Generation Post Processor to output NC programs that have Subroutines/Subprograms using G91. I have the problem of making changes at the machine and needing to redesign a model and post a new program with the correct positioning code in G90. Instead, I was looking to have the subroutines/subprograms be outputted in G91 so I could make simple position adjustments and reuse the same subroutine. Furthermore, I attempted to use Autodesk's Post Processor Training Manual but found it too complicated to understand. I have the code for the post processor, I just do not know what exactly to add/alter. Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated.

Lee,

 

Thank you for replying back to the post, I would very much like some assistance in this field. How could I customize the Haas Next Generation Post Processor to output my subroutines in G91? Based on what I found it would require placing a code in the attached NC file, in the form of...

 

createOutputVariable({type:TYPE_INCREMENTAL},format);

 

I'm not sure how to adapt and apply this sample code to the attached NC file so it would make my subroutines be outputted in G91.
