Yes, G0 and G00 are the same thing.
After rereading your first post, and seeing that your machine has trouble going up, maybe it is more likely a case of stepper overload. Have you counterbalanced this heavy axis? Decrease your acc/dec ramps until the motor can achieve the required movement of the slide. If it cannot ever move correctly, then you've got to beef up the motors, or reduce friction.
The smooothing commands are really only of any value to you if you have a continuous seqence of feedrate movements. Just looking at your program, you've only got one feedrate movement between each rapid movement, so smoothing would not have any chance to be applied.
I believe the correct syntax is:
G8 G1 Xxx Yyy Zzz
to begin a sequence with smoothing on, then end the smoothing sequence by ending with:
G9 G1 Xxx Yyy Zzz
on the last line of the sequence.
I think that I have those in the correct order. I'm not near my Camsoft manual right now, to check.
