Is there anyone who at least knows how this machine is reading arcs(g2 g3)?
It looks greek to me.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I just started helping a shop with a Hurco mill that has a 2001 ultimax ssm control.
I tried to program in .hnc with fanuc style programing and it will not read the arcs correctly. Also the control seems to lockup sometimes and the last few cycles I ran it would not go to the run screens I first used that had the rapid override button etc. The only way I could remedy this is to turn off the machine and bring it back up.
Any help would be appreciated I would like to know how to change the .hnc arc code to work. I have attached a program that was left in the machine from the last owner, I think he was drip feeding this.

Mike is this the first time you have tried G-Coding this Hurco? It has been a while since we had an old one. Using VM-1 machines now. I am kind of fuzzy on what we did. I want to say that we changed the code to read G01, G03, etc and tweaked the I and J and the R values by a couple tenths. The way the old controls convert this is funky and they can be a bit fussy. Sometimes you have to lie to the machine to get things to come out tangent,or the machine thinks it has a CC error and will not play. Tis work with one of ours but not on the KM3P.
This machine is a 2001 and was running g-code before the current shop bought it.
I face the same problem, any expert out there can help?..
