    What's wrong here?

    Why does this path stop with K-Cam, and not come back to origin?

    I get this error when I load it:
    Error, line 2 in test file.nc:
    The vector to the center defines
    an invalid arc. The arc cannot
    be drawn from the beginning point
    to the ending point with the
    center as specified.

    Also, your last line has x & y going to zero but the program starts at x.1875 and y0

    Hope this helps

    Well, I got much father than you did. The program ran through line 6 and then stopped.

    I will go back and check the radius points to 5 decimal places.

    The last line of code takes the machine back to where it started, which is X.0000 Y.0000

    The first line of code is where the machine goes in it's first move, this is not the home of the machine.
