PS. Your post changes were ok but they were based on the generic Fanuc post which does have some differences to the Intelitek control. My preliminary post is made specifically for the Intelitek control - so once the post has been verified that should be used.

The preliminary post you sent to me didnt work. When I tried to run a program the machine would move the Z-axis all the way up, and then start to move the X-Axis all the way to the right (In which I would then hit the e-stop since if I let it do that it would knock the PC over haha, gotta move that) So basically it is doing the same thing as when I tried using just a generic Fanuc post.
on the other hand,

Your updated post works like a charm. Spindle works and I able to start running programs and cutting up some machining wax ;D. Can't wait to start making more complex things. And like you said, I'll try and start learning G and M codes so I'll actually understand what I'm doing.

Hi,
I am trying to generate g code with Fusion 360 for an old proLIGHT 1000 CNC mill. The machine is controlled by an (outdated) DOS software running on a Win 95 PC. I tried the generic and customized Intelitek post processors that i found on this thread, but the nc program generated failed to run ( i got error for unsupported codes such as G53/G54). I think the reason is the DOS control software, which doesn't support as many g-codes as the "newer" Windows one provided by Intelitek (attached is the list of G & M codes supported according to the user's manual).
Does anyone have a compatible post processor that may work for my setup?
Thank you in advance,
Stavros
The posts attached here are quite old. Have a look at https://cam.autodesk.com/hsmposts?p=intelitek and see if that can be used. Changes might be required though.
There is a manual here which might help https://downloads.intelitek.com/Manuals/CNC/Discontinued%20Machines/proLIGHT_1000_WIN_Manual.pdf
