What is frustrating sometimes is to have things one expects to work not work and do funny things (this can even be dangerous). I think there should be a list of the features that do not work, so that time is not wasted trying to get them to work. For example if one uses tool nose radius compensation, an alarm should come out instead of going on with herratic movements. I spent a whole day trying G41/G42 before considering, ´hey, maybe its not me, its Mach´. Same happened with feed per rev in CSS. Next week I will test backlash, and maybe I am for a surprise, hope not. On the other hand I must say I have been working 24/7 for several weeks on repetitive stuff, and not a single pulse has been missed. Accuracy and repetitiveness is excelent. Threading, after forgetting about a high tech encoder an just installing a slotted disk works perfectly.
