You can write a script for this but you can also use the function built into the NC Program settings. Look at the program start section in the attached post, this is a generic post that's installed with PowerMill 2023. 

 

This section for the fixture offset will default to outputting G54 if no other selection is being used.

How to select something other than G54: Open the NC Program settings > select a toolpath in the list > Drop the menu for fixture offset and select the output.

By default your Fanuc style offsets won't populate, so you'll need to create them first. Use the plus button to bring up the menu to add these in. You'll only need to do this once.

What you said is OK, but there is no such similar information for me to refer to, I think this way will be relatively straight point of view and good operation, I would like to learn the relevant knowledge in this aspect
