    Where...again...to change from M05 to M03 ?

    Hi all....

    Been there....but can't remember the fix...and can't find it in the search !
    When my MX7 generates the Gcode, ( post processing) it give me a stat with an M05 vs a M03
    can one guide me "again" to what I'm missing / forgeting / not doing ?!?

    Example....
    N120 (MAX - Z2.)
    N130 (MIN - Z-.25)
    N140 G00 Z2.
    N150 G00 X1.8081 Y2.4584 S0 M05
    N160 Z.5
    N170 G01 Z.25 F30.
    ........

    Thanks, Robert

    If you look at your program....your spindle speed is ZERO (S0)

    --- It is to be expected that a spindle stop (M05) be output to stop it, if it was running in a previous operation
    --- no post mod required....put a spindle speed in the tooling parameters, regen, & repost
