Why dosent my siemens 840D post write cycle800 0 degrees when posting a program?

[Vohnsen]

This means it dosent move B til 0 if its not there already when i start..

How do i make so it automaticly will write a cycle800..

See no B0 or Cycle800 0 degrees around B axis.

hmm thats weird!

Check out my screen cast..

In your Screencast you selected a post called "siemens-840d.cps" which is the generic post i guess.

This post does not have the machine config enabled, so you will not see CYCLE800 at the beginning of the program.

You uploaded a post called "siemens-840d-FD.cps", this one has the machine config active so you will get a CYCLE800.

arhh i forgot to enable that... thats it.. it works.. 

thanks mate!
