Hi I have come across add odd behaviour when contour milling with Axis and EMC 2.2.2 on a Sherline 5000. After the first 3 levels have cut fine, the G2 circular lines are subsequently ignored and only lines with linear codes are read. The debug output also shows the program skipping line numbers with G2 codes on. I've checked and double checked the program and can find no cause for it.
I was wondering if anyone has had a similar issue and could shed any light on the problem. The code where the erroneous behaviour starts is: << N210 X-10.153 Y10.147 N212 G1 Z15.022 F10 N214 G2 X-10.153 Y-10.147 I-10.147 J-10.147 F75 N216 G1 X-11.415 Y-11.409 N218 G2 X-14.39 Y-13.085 I-4.49 J4.49 N220 G1 X-14.392 Y-13.077 N222 G2 X-28.375 Y-11.862 I-5.908 J13.077 N224 G1 X-29.5 Y-11.85 >> The controller completely ignores N214, N218 and N222. The previous level works as expected: << N146 X-10.153 Y10.147 N148 G1 Z15.517 F10 N150 G2 X-10.153 Y-10.147 I-10.147 J-10.147 F75 N152 G1 X-11.415 Y-11.409 N154 G2 X-14.39 Y-13.085 I-4.49 J4.49 N156 G1 X-14.392 Y-13.077 N158 G2 X-28.375 Y-11.862 I-5.908 J13.077 N160 G1 X-29.5 Y-11.85 >> I am going to attempt to reconfigure EMC 2.1.7 and see if the same error occurs.
