I recently purchased version 32 for my new cnc plasma cutter. after long hours and many tries I finally got it to post a program. Its a simple program to cut a round hole in a plate. The code has a lot of M codes I've never heard of before. M716, M702, M712, M703 and others. Does anyone know what these codes would be for? I haven't seen them listed anywhere. I'm wondering if I have the wrong post processor. One for some machine I don't have. I'm running Mach 4 so would need a post processor compatible with it. I am new to Mach 4 though so not sure what the machine would expect.Below is the program. I'm new to cnc plasma and Mach4 but have experience on cnc machines. Any help would be appreciated.
