B365. ?

B365. ?

(OP)
Just trying to get some clarity on this situation.

Post builder B axis for this machine is set to 0-min and 360-max. Now when i post out the program it seems to work correctly everywhere except on one of the last moves where it goes from 270deg to 365deg (which should be 5deg) I can only guess but im thinking it is taking the closest path to the 5 deg b/c it rotates cw to 270 then cw to 365. I am just wondering why it puts out 365 instead of 5deg when the max in post builder is set to 360?

Thanks for any help.

RE: B365. ?

What is the max limit on the B word?

That was the problem. For some reason the B was set min-0 and max-360000.
