I'm using the UG Siemens PostBuilder, and when I started making a 2 axis Lathe Post, I picked the Controller as a Sinumerik 840D Lathe. What I found out today was the controller is actually a Fanuc controller.

Is there anyway to easily changed this over? Or to change the nurbs so it runs correctly?

Thanks,

I recommend you start over, and select a Fanuc controller when you create the post.

As Mark said, just start over. That said just open the current one and the new one with the proper control side-by-side. Makes it easy to re-populate all the information. You are not the first to have to do this... and won't be the last. It goes pretty fast that way.

Thanks you two. I'm new to post-writing, and it took me a while to get this one "right" so to get all the way done and find out that I messed up one of the fundamental pieces was pretty hard to swallow.
