Hi All,
I have been learning SolidCAM and have posted a number of codes using the Fanuc post processor. The codes are for someone else so I don't run them but I have been told there are some problems. He says the tool shoots up and down and he as to restart it at the beginning of the code, see below:

Additionally when the the code goes from roughing to a linear cut (see below) he has to press start in Mach 3 again.

Obviously this is far from ideal. All the forums I have found say stick with the Fanuc post processor so perhaps there are some settings in SolidCAM which I have overlooked? Also I am really bad at reading G-Code as I am mostly self-taught, so please excuse me if it is blindingly obvious!
Thanks,
Richard
