No probs there Jon. Now I have another problem, despite all the Z values in the code being quite middle of the range, it won't run claiming Z max is beyond the max limit. But if I (debug,first var in program) its not been inited, so I gave up, put a thumb on thr esc button and and clicked on run, run anyway. But apparently I need to convert the result of the first g38.2 differently, a 1mm up move went about .2mm into the contact target because the equ in metric of the #5223 capture is over 5mm below the target contact, so that calculation puts it about 4.5 mm below the contact, obviously wrecking it. And I'm burned out till I've had time to think on it. Me is beginning to think the code scanner is busted, as in with none of the programs #<_vars> initialized, how the heck does it determine its out of range when its not? Or is that the stock answer when it accesses a named var and gets #.######## for an answer? This is beginning to resemble fish in the fridge, or company, after 3 days, it should be thrown out. :) I can drive the machine by hand to do all this, at 20x the time wasted. I'm going to go see if Dee's toy will start, put it in the driveway if it will, and see about some of this 18" grass. Way overdue for a john deer haircut.
