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.
 
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.
