Forgive my ignorance, but I am pretty new to this and not great at programming. I run an AjaxCNC based mill which uses a generic Centroid post. My prior CAM package crashed and isn't supported any longer and so I migrated to Fusion 360 (which is amazing so far), but there is a lot of differece between my last cam software. I am slowly coming up to speed. I am trying to rebuild my post processor and am not sure what all problems I will have with it but want to correct things as they come along.
My first issue is tool changes. My last CAM program had you specify where you wanted the tool change to occur and then it moved the machine to that point. Fusion uses the g28 command it seems. When running the generic centroid post it outputs "G28 G91 Z0" which will home the z axis but overrides the machine setpoints so entries into the x or y are ignored. I removed the Z0 from the code and the machine moved to the reference points as intended. I'd like to modify the post processor so that the Z0 doesn't get added but cant find the section of code which changes that output. Can someone help?
N110 G28 G91 Z0. (this is the z0 I want to remove)
