However, all the cutter path was generated mirrored on the X axis. Modifying post logic is not my strong point. Can you spot a reason for the above anomaly?

Yet when I post, my g-code is still being produced with .0001" increments. Can anyone help with this? Am I missing an additional setting somewhere? I need to try .0005" increments to trouble shoot a re-occurring error in our Proto Trak MX2 toolroom mill controls. Thanks in advance.
