G1 highfeed in Metric

All of the parts we work with are programmed in metric. I am not sure what to change in the generic Haas post to get my G1 highfeed to travel at 25 Mpm rapid. I noticed that the post "highfeedrate = (unit == IN) ? 500 : 5000" With this setting left as is I only get a 5000 mmpm (196 ipm). I am leaving a fair bit of machine time on the table. Sorry if this was covered before, I did not see it.

Why don't you just change it to:

 

highfeedrate = (unit == IN) ? 500 : 25000

 

No fear, the Haas control will just complain and not execute the block if you accidantely put a too high number there (on my NGC at least).
