Reset C axis after each Swarf

Hi, we're going to mill 500+ Swarf finishing. There is only 540 degrees rotation on the C axis. How do I make the C axis reset after each path? The Option file is set to Reset axis Before Any Toolpath.

if you open your post file, is it set like mine is below? I have my post hard coded to do the same thing after every toolpath, regardless of what the user chooses in the NC Program form.

Hi, It doesn't work for me to hard code C0.0 in the option file, have I missed something? If I'm lucky I can get three paths to work in succession, the others will be "double rotation" and I get the error message "Postprosseor Error - Broken connection" when I try to post the file.
