Yes, I think that a G41.1 or G42.1 will need to be invoked at the beginning of each cut depending on travel direction and then a G40 will need to be used at the end of each cut so the travel direction can be changed for the following cut.
Lead ins are used to start all cuts so I am hoping I can invoke the G41.1 or G42.1 prior to the lead in and then cancel it at the end of each cut via a G40. That should make the CAM post pretty straight forward ( I hope! ). I did some testing with G41 and G42 yesterday and found out that a M64 P0 (Digital output On) cannot be executed while a G41 or G42 is active? I thought that was a little strange. I'm using M64 P0 to turn on the waterjet and M65 P0 to turn it off. Does this sound like a bug?
