Hello again,
I don't know if I can rely on that this thread is alive?
Anyway, I'll post and see.
I now have a software problem. I am using CAMBAM for CAM programme. And visually in the cam window, my design makes absolute sense, a number of logs cut-out from a 2440 x 1220 cm sheet.
Anyway I generate the gcode, loads into Mach3, and my design is in the middle: a lot of crazy arcs starting from either end of the sheet and looping to the other end in immense proportion.
By google, I have come across threads that almost exactly describes my problem, and relates it to the Distance mode / IJ mode:
CAMBAM is set to IJ Incremental C-P1
Mach3 is set to Distance mode: absolute and IJ mode incremental.
And I have spent the whole day doing anything in between, typed G91.1 in the MDI in Mach3, in CAMBAM switched from Incremental to default & postprocessor to Mach3, restarted programmes, updated settings etc.: STILL, those crazy loops!
I really hope that someone can help me out here,
best regards
Anders
