Hi,
This is the message I read : MSG.ToolDia(arrow)Dia
Meaning I guess dia data missing? I entered 0.25
If I enter 0 it tells me it can't be 0. So?
In config, I have tool no 1 with .25 dia., cv abs (tried both Sad)
other wizards (the ones I tried)  are working properly.
Don't know where to look at. Smiley
Any help appreciated.

Can you post a screenshot of the values you have entered and I will put the same in here and see what happens, that way I can maybe figure out your problem.

Ok what it is telling you is the cutter Dia is larger than the circle Dia. That  is because you have a cutter Dia of 0.25 and a final cut depth of 0.75. The Final Cut depth is actually meaning a final pass width and not depth I think. Put 0 in there and it should work fine.

It is worded badly when it says Final Cut Depth, would have been better if it said Finish Cut  Amount or something like that.
