Title: Radius to end of arc differs from-
Post by: jimamato on July 19, 2018, 01:51:42 PM
I have used my home built CNC router for some time now free of any major problems or errors. However yesterday I was running a project that I created in Fusion 360, and when I loaded the G-code into my Mach3 software. I received an error informing me that the Radius to end of arc differs from- not able to read the remainder.
After repeatedly running the G-code of a simple circle and coming up with the same error, I now ran the model and g-Code through Cam Bam and yet I received the very same error. Am I correct assuming that the problem is in Mach 3 and if so any ideas on how to repair the problem.
Thank You for any help anyone can provide.
Jim

Check your IJ mode in General Config. In most cases, it should be set to incremental.
