I have looked and something you have added to the screen set is crashing it out. Soon as I have some free time I will dig the screen apart and have a look. It is looking for a LIB that you don't have installed at first glance but I will know more later today.

Thanks

That my friend is an Artwork file and your asking to go very fast through it. a better way to code this shape if you want to go fast is to make it with lines and arcs not small line segments. To get a file like that to run well your going to need to bring the look ahead down to a more reasonable level. Your electrical panels should be no issue at all.  Please lets focus on one file at a time. Can we get your file that are real parts done before we set up the machine for artwork?

Thanks

I just looked and I think your missing the mc.mcMotionSetCVAngleEnable(inst, 1) call This will enable the distance table. Run this in the script editor and tell me if that looks better

local inst = mc.mcGetInstance()
mc.mcMotionSetCVAngleEnable(inst, 1)

if you have any CV settings that will turn it on

That looks like VB not lua and looks like Mach3 calls.

I am going to test this tonight on the little machine I have at my house. My son loves goofing off with the software and this will be a good chance to show him how this works.

But I really need you INI file so I can check out the settings. You will be running good parts tomorrow!

Thanks

Okay lets slow down a bit. You have a problem with the CV settings. It looks like you have nice long lines so an issue can be Artwork with very short moves. I tested all this when I made the code for the CV tolerances. So I am sure we can make it work. Rather than cutting a sheet lets slow down and get a corner working the way you would like. When I setup the machine here I did a few angled that I cared about for the Jobs I was running.

Another option for nice sharp corners is to roll with G61 for the parts that you need to have sharp corners.
Please send me your profile so I can have a look. I see what they do for me.

Thanks
