    Error?

    Hello,

    I post processed a part and then ran it in Mach3.

    The first thing I see when I open the file is the program jumps to line 75 and in the status box I see:

    "Radius to end of arc differs from radius to start line 75"

    I have no idea what that means, but I'm interpreting this as an error because in the preview window I don't see my part program and nothing happens when I try to run the program.

    Any ideas? Suggestions?

    Re: Error?

    It's most likely due to an incorrect IJ mode, which specifies the center point of an arc.
    The error means that an arc with the specified radius will not end at the specified location.
