I have metric thread coming up using some material that's hard to get. I used the vardex thread turning program to program it, because I'm hesitant to do all the conversions myself and use a g76 cycle. The problem is I've never really used g-code that individually programs every pass. Here is the output:

My plotter gives me a syntax error I was wondering what I had to had in order to get this to run on a Fanuc controller. Is there a g code I need to preface this with?
EDIT: For reference it is an internal M72 x 4 thread.
