im able to program for one of my work cncs here at home...well a new to us but a old cnc was shipped to us and it was put on to me to figure out how to do posts to this machine...i have 2 code samples to go off of but the G3 lines have me going on a trip with the "U" near the end. the cnc is from Italy and its 15-20 years old. And to top it off...the only file extention that i can see with the icon is just ".file"...

U is the radius ,just like R or P

[customcolor]

i kinda figured that out...but does it replace "r" 100% ?

[holbieone]

write a small program that test both solutions
