G-Code, CAD, and CAM discussions / Re: Current point same as end point alarm

Thanks Graham,
     I had refrenced a thread I saw a while back that you had answered . It makes perfect sense that it can't go to where it is already at. Now I understand that a R can not do more than 180 degrees. I hadn't seen it spelled out like that before or didn't understand it if I did. Thanks a lot Graham. You have saved me once again.

Hey Zoltan,
    Tell us about your machine. Does it have servos, or steppers? Are sending any kind of position feed back, encoders, glass scales? If you disable backlash comp. does it run the code fine? Are you using the demo version or have you bought a licenses?

G-Code, CAD, and CAM discussions / Current point same as end point alarm

« on: March 26, 2007, 12:21:31 PM »

Hello All,
     I have a question. Why is it that my set up will give me the alarm Current point same as end point of arc on line #20 in the code directly below. However, in the later code it is doing the same thing only with IJKs and not Rs. My set up has no problem with the later. Is there something Mach doesn't like about the Rs or is it just my set up, code, etc.? Does this code look good to you guys? See any problems?

Wow Patrick, they look great. Much better than the ones I did. Although I gave the customer what they wanted, I like yours a lot better.

Thanks for shrinking the pics.

Brett

EDIT
Here is a link to mine, close to the bottom. I ran the outside profile for a friend who only has manual machines. He is a very good machinest, just hard headed. If he wasn't so hard headed, I would have talked him into some retrofits.

Hey Zoltan,
    Give us more detail about the backlash and shuttle wheel question. What is it doing, not doing?

LOL, No one should make a mistake, I'm an animal lover. This is just funny. Talk about grabbing a cat by the tail. Good one Graham.

Hey guys, I just checked and had the same results as Hood, no problems. When did you fellows register? I wonder if this has something to do with it and if the recent server transfer has anything to do with it.
