    Mach choking on G82

    I got the following line in the Gcode from RhinoCAM and Mach is choking on it.

    G82 X1.1890 Y-0.3000 Z-0.155 R0.1 L0.5 P0.5[DELI
    MITER]F10.9

    Looking at some documentation on G82 I don't see the strange [DELIMETER] as part of the code. Is that what the issue is or is there something else wrong with this line?

    Re: Mach choking on G82

    There are 2 things wrong in the Gcode call. L is a repeat value it can ONLY be an integer 1,2,3,4,etc it cannot do 1/2 of a cycle (;-).

    The comment is enclosed in brackets [ ] where it should be enclosed in braces ( ).

    (;-) TP

    Check your manuals regarding the Dwell (P)
    - some controls don't use a decimal in the time area ie 0.5 seconds is P500
