I have also included pics of the setup I am using the vice on the right.
It alarms out on the boldfaced line. All I can say is WTF? It is an Okuma VMC4020 with and OSP 100M

Machines these days have "look ahead". The line the program stops on is usually not the line that is causing the alarm. On line 120 I see a call for A0. Does this machine have A axis enabled?

1. F60 could be too much for A axis.
2. A axis has some limitation ... Don't remember exactly now. It can't be rotated more, than ... times one direction. Must be rotated oposite or some workaround
Hey thanks guys it was the A axis trying to take that feedrate. Added a G0 z3. after my last X move and worked fine. I have been running that program with a few changes to the z heights and x travels just to do some quick facemilling for over a year and now today it decides to be moody. Thanks again.
