Positive I & J in lower quadrant

[orbimachine]

When I generate the NC code for an arc in the lower quadrants the values of I & J are still positive. I fixed this back when I set up vers. 17, but now it is back with vers. 19 and I do not remember how to fix it. Any Ideas?

Im not sure but I think you are looking for the 'Increamental coordinates arccenter (I,J,K).

It's located in the NC>setup>driver window.

I tried you fix and it generated incremental values but I usually use absolute coordinates in most of my programs.

I think I fixed the problem. There were conversions set up I- to I and J- to J in vers. 17. setup. When I removed those conversions I & J began to behave themselves. I don't know why these conversions were set up in my vers. 17 setup, and why it worked then.

Thanks for your input.
