Title: G28.1 Z.500 (TOM) routine NOW works with G68 coord rotation in V.067
Post by: BR549 on November 27, 2012, 03:42:03 PM

Not sure IF any one noticed BUT the G28.1 Z.500 routine will NOW run with G68 active.   I found it by accident today testing some old code on the latest dev version.

Thanks Brian and Company (;-),

Are you running 067 on a daily basis?  066 is lock down.  If 067 is still in development, I don't want to turn it loose on my customers.

Yes Richard I have. CandCNC switched over a while back to Ver.067 to gain all the improvements they needed for their latest release. It has been working fine here.

After some testing, I found a fairly serious issue in .067.  When cutting a large file with lots of parts, mach will skip over some of the parts.  The G-code is fine.  I load the same file on a machine running .022 and it runs fine.  When I re-load on .067, it fails.  Tried different PC's and different machines with the same results.  The failure point is random.  Every now and then it will just skip a part.  The TOM routine runs, torch fires, torch shuts off, raises and moves to next part....almost as if the linear feed code is just missing.
