Mach4 General Discussion / Re: Help! Error Message G81 Cycle, Z Value Unspecified Error
« on: December 08, 2017, 01:01:34 PM »
Hi,
I use a software utility that converts PCB artwork into Gcode and it puts a G81 on each line also and that's when I encountered the behaviour you noted.
I was tempted to call it an error, after all the same code ran under Mach3 just fine, it must be a Mach4 bug, but its not. The Mach4 behaviour is closer
to the correct, or at least 'Peter Smid' interpretation.
