    Help with postprocessor Edgecam - Mach3

    Hello guys.
    Im having some trouble with my PP, the Mach can`t take this code:

    %
    O0001
    (Lomme syklus test)
    N10 G21 G90 G40
    N20 G0 X4.487 Y0.0 S9999 M3
    N30 G43 Z5.0 H00
    N40 G17 G94 G3 X-4.464 Z4.31 I-4.475 J0.0 K1.38 F1103.5
    N50 X4.44 Z3.623 I4.452 J0.0 K1.373
    N60 X-4.417 Z2.94 I-4.428 J0.0 K1.366
    N70 X4.394 Z2.261 I4.406 J0.0 K1.359
    ...
    ...

    Because the K isn`t allowed??

    And the error screen in mach3 is so small that i can`t read the end of the tekst... Is there some way to read the fully error line?

    Greetings from Robert.

    I imagine that it is the K value. Inside Code Wizard, NC Style, G-Code and Modality > Circular Interpolation > and check Suppress Pitch in Helical Moves. Rerun the post and it should take care of that problem.
