Hi, The emc on documentation http://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gcode_main.html#sub:G81:-Drilling-Cycle
shows G81 X- Y- Z- A- B- C- R- L- which to me indicates that it should work given C axis values. Is this correct? The example from http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.3/html/gcode_mill_canned.html indicates that after the command any further values cause the cycle to be repeated but just X Y and Z values are shown there. I expected the following code to work but it doesn't. The drill cycle is repeated and there is movement along the X axis, but all C axis values are being ignored. G00 Z2.000 G00 F40.000 X140.000 C0.000 G90 G81 Z-10.000 R0.000 X161.651 C10.000 C20.000 X140.000 C30.000 X118.349 C40.000 C50.000 ... G80 (Ending canned cycle) (Move up to safe height and zero position) G00 Z2.000 G00 X0.000 Y0.000 C0.000 M2 Is this correct? Have I misunderstood the G81 code or is there a bug?
