    G76 Help Please

    Hi All,
    I can't seem to get the lathe canned cycle G76 to plot. I've tried single line command and two line command from the Fanuc manuals but no joy.
    Could someone post sample code of G76 that does plot in NCPlot?
    Am I missing a setting?
    Any help is appreciated!

    Ok, I found G760.PRG and added G76 to G/M Codes using LATHE DIAMETER CUSTOM CANNED CYCLES configuration.
    Still can't get it to plot, something about unacceptable thread angle. I'll keep trying, this stuff is SO cool!

    depending on the control acceptable thread angles can be only a few. practical angles are 0, 55, 60
