you can also use "datum shift" from the M-function pull down at the top, if you dont put any shift in the boxes and just add the datum you want to use to the "work datum override" here it will do the same thing.

It looks like the datum override will only take a number (no letters or it errors out). On my Haas, beyond the G54-G59, Haas has additional offsets "G154 P1, G154 P2, etc"... is there a way to force Edgecam to accept these type of offsets? It errors out when I try to enter the "P1, P2, etc"

Thanks, Timf!

You need to configure the post processor with the starting and maximum datum values (NC Style Section, Datum Setting tab), and configure the Format Table so that Work Coordinate System values have the "G154 P" letter address. By the way, this applies to the modern adaptive Code Wizard templates. This is a simple modification to a "known good" post processor. If this doesn't information doesn't make sense, then I'd suggest contact your reseller for assistance.

Hope that helps!
