I need someone to help with how to setup a 3+2 in NX9 cam. I am using G54 for the face work and G55 for the od work. I can't seem to get the software to output the correct A or B in the post. I have a trunion with a rotary. Using the mulitaxis template with the generic drill operations. NX9 is the software I am using. This should be simple drill 4 holes on one plane rotate trunion 90 deg drill hole on OD rotate rotary 180 drill again.

Does the path look correct in NX, before you postprocess?

I would try this using one of the our of the box simulation examples. Go to Menu > Help > Manufacturing Tutorials, and pick the link Open a Sample Part. Scroll down and you will see dozens of sample machine. Find one close to yours - I think sim08 is a table/table machine.
