i'll set the height and run into the material.

thanks alex

The first command of motion is X0 Y0 Z0
If you start the program with the machine elsewhere...
Is the machine heading X0 Y0 Z0?

[JEST]

Are you starting the program with the machine at X0 Y0 Z0?
The first motion command is to go XYZ 0.
Is that the "corner" it moves to?

[bcdracing]

when i turn the machine on its @ 000.

it heads towards the right and back.

can you exsplain the where the 3 000 are. absolute, ? , ? i forget and don't
really know how it works. or link me to a page that exsplains it.

The machine is told to Rapid to X0 Y0 Z0 (Absolute)
Do you know how to enter data (MDI)?

towards the right and back.??
What quadrant is that for your settings?
Are you sure that the machine is not set up to program in the -X -Y quad?

[/QUOTE]


MDI, the screen on the cnc, yes i do.
is there a place to edit the where 000 is from the machine.

where ever i turn it on it reads 000.

towards the right and back.??

thats where it goes to if i start the program in the center.

What quadrant is that for your settings?

? you need a xy for the right and back?

Are you sure that the machine is not set up to program in the -X -Y quad?

don't know what that is.

thanks alex

First, this should be a number, not an uppercase letter "O". (easy typo)

Look at line #3:

ZO.

Ok. Lets backup.
The Gcode has no visable starting "errors"
So lets look at location and motion control.

Input G01 X0 Y0 Z0.

Not G00! G00 is RAPID. Use G01 (feed) if you must enter a motion command and you are not POSITIVE of the machine response. Also be ready to hit stop or interupt.

What happens when you execute?

[Walt@SGS.Inc]

I think with G01, you may need a F something. F10.0000????

good call Switcher.
I see the letter "o" where the number zero belongs.
Great machinist eye for detail!
Ashamed I overlooked it.
I did notice the "even only line numbers. N104,N110,N172,N174,N176,N180,N184, and N192 have been removed.
Is this the result of text based editing?

[Blaster33442]

drop the line N106 & N108 should keep it from running into the work
