I have an older Saelo mill with an MCT controller. I am trying to get it to execute programs from mastercam. Heres what I see. As soon as it encounters an arc I get an arc error.An example of simple straight line then 1/2 inch arc going downward:
G01 X1.
G02 x1.5 y-.5 I0. J-.5
I get arc endpoint error. The I and J are incremental location from end of the line.
But if I make the I and J absolute from 0, 0, just changing the I value to 1.0 makes it work. In other words the I and J are absolute values from 0,0
Is there a mastercam setting or a post processor setting??? Or as different post processor. Ive pretty much tried them all.
Thank O gurus
