Title: Display and progam limits PROBLEM using G02 & G03
Post by: Tiwanacote on March 21, 2009, 07:18:36 PM
Hi every body,

I think I found a Bug in Mach3, or maby I am just missusing the software.
I loaded a few g-codes  using g02 and g03 in absolute mode, IJK coords. 
Configured Mach in "IJ mode": Absolute .
I found than in every case Program limits show incorrect data and Display mode shows the part very far away from the home.
when programing the same parts without G02 and G03, evrithing works properly.
The most astonishing thing is that when I run the cicular interpolation program, the machine works as fine, producing a correct piece.

Does anybody has an idea of what may be wrong?

Does it do the same thing if you select incremental for arcs?

If Greg's suggestion doesn't work, post the code and your XML so we can have a look.

Yes, I tried to change to incremental but didnt`t work.
Sorry..., what is the "XML"??
(I will send the G-code ion Thursday)
