Title: New problem after G80
Post by: Psad on June 28, 2006, 04:58:44 PM

Attached is the DXF and Tap file i've been working on today.
converted holes to dirll.  Program gets lost.  Line N100 should have a G1 after the G80 cancels the canned cycle.  I've had this happen onseveral files with 2.54 whe i change to drill.

Fantastic work on the program.  Getting much better with each release.

Now silly questions
??? is there a zoom  or pan in LZ.
 When i select a tool does LZ take in to account the cutter radius automatically or do i have to add  G40 to G42 in my code.

I will put in a fix for the G01's after the G80's :)

To pan and zoom press the shift or Crtl button & hold down the left mouse button When you move the mouse the view will change...

To use cutter comp you need to have G41/G42 turned on under the posting options.. The leadin size must be greater or = to the tool Dia. The tool Dia also needs to be in the tool table in Mach3...


Thank you
Brian
