Don't Know G-Code? Use VPS to Program Radial Drilling & Tapping On Your Haas Lathe-Haas Apps Minute

The Haas Visual Programming System, or VPS for short, allows you to program some pretty complex operations on your lathe without knowing the associated G-Code. And even if you do know G-Code, VPS can be an easy way to generate code that might otherwise take much longer to program.
Andrew shows us that all you need to know is your part geometry. Take that and answer a series of simple questions on the VPS template, and you'll have a program ready to run right away.

Even after all these years I have never been able to get used to the alphabetical keyboard. I wish there was a way I could plug in a QWERTY keyboard.

Can you explain how can I make holes on the od if holes are in angle? I am using a angle holder at 45 degrees. The drilling cycle does not understand simultaneous move of x and z movement. I have a Haas ST-20y. Please help

No G19, G154 (C Axis engage), or G155 (C Axis disengage) ? I read these codes in a live tool book from productivity Inc.
