    Hello CNC-Arena

    We’ve been using an old controller Dialog 11 for a week. And now my guys have to program there.

    At the moment we have the following problem: it doesn’t accept polar information. We’d like to mill a hexagon.

    For example
    N10 G41 G9 G1 XPA0 PYA0 PW-90 PL10 G60 M62
    N20 G9 G1 XPA0 PYA0 PW-30 PL10
    N30 G9 G1 XPA0 PYA0 PW30 PL10
    N40 G9 G1 XPA0 PYA0 PW90 PL10
    N50 G9 G1 XPA0 PYA0 PW150 PL10
    N60 G9 G1 XPA0 PYA0 PW-90 PL10
    N70 G40

    I hope someone can help us…

    Greetings

    Try it in a simple way:
    G9 I0 J0 W-90 R10

    Hi

    Did it work?
    Example is from Diaog12, so it should also work for 12. In case of 2D-processing with G9 data as PW and PL aren’t necessary (PW is angel (W) and PL is radius
