G92 for the A axis is broken in the .43 development version.


Works fine in the lockdown version.

In .43, if you step thru one line at a time and it works OK, but run the code and the A axis does really strange things.

Gcode attached. (ignore note on depth of cut . . partial edit left over from earlier iteration)

Problem in at first G92 A0 when the program is RUN.

I know where the problem came in and will look at it next week. It has to do with how the Current position is being calculated... I moved some of that stuff about for Comp.

Thanks

Can someone confirm this?

If I run this code to cut a hole, it works fine.

G40

M3
G0 Z0.1250
G0 X0.2500 Y0.3750 Z0.1250

G0 X0.0000 Y1.0000 Z0.1250
G40
G0 X0 Y0

M30

But when I add a second hole, the first one no longer cuts correctly, even though the code is identical. But the second one cuts OK.

Edit:

I've found that adding a short G1 move after the G40 gets rid of the error.
