For Vectric, you'd want to check out what Gary Campbell has done: viewtopic.php?t=7078
My rotary runs parallel to the X axis, so I use this guy: download/file.php?id=19750
That uses inverse time mode (G93). Note that the filename needs to be truncated to the .pp extension before you load it into Vectric PP manager.

I have emailed the "regular" and inverse time mode imperial versions to you. You will need to make the swap to metric
