    Unhappy centurian-6; unwanted repeats

    I have programmed a mill cycle. I have the "start mill" event, then the "circular pocket" event, followed by the "tool retract, end mill" event. The program then repeats this process over and over. I have put this pocket cycle before the drill events and after. To no avail, repeats, repeats. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. I have checked our manual, but can find no "repeat" call. Thanks

    Hi bigbobr
    Post your Gcode here it may be a simple change at the end of the program that will
    fix it.

    O.K.; A cup of coffee and several more button mashes and I found the text version of the program. Now I need a run-down of G-codes and P-codes used for these controls....

    The pocket clear is a can cycle you do not want the mill start and end.
    just remove the start and end mill cycle.
    Make sure you have the pocket mill setup
