    Help with microtech sim

    I'm really new to this so bear with me.
    I downloaded the micro tech cnc simulator yesterday and tried to write my 1st program, but when I added in a g73 for a roughing pass it just read the line and kept going.
    My question is does this sim run Fanuc canned cycles or am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks
    Rich

    I believe it has been noted in the past that some of the canned routines do not work as predicted, I have never got G83 peck drill to work as expected.

    Thanks
    I thought maybe it was something I was doing wrong.
    Guess the company will have to spend the money on the Fanuc sim if they want it done that way
