Hi Don,
I guess the answer is yes and no. Some versions of emc1 had that
problem. Some early versions were just fine.
Jon Elson is running and old, OLD emc 1 and it is just fine. Others
from several years ago are not.
IIRC paul c fixed that bug a quite a while ago. Z tends to move
proportional to the X and or Y movement. Very disturbing when the
tool is headed for the deck. :-(
BTW- I assume the E43 is really G43 (tool length).
EMC2 version 2.0.0 and up AFIK works just fine... I use G43 all the
time. One can get really spoiled when all the frills really work. :-)

Hi All,
Had a weird problem with EMC1 here. This is RC_46. When
I did a E43 in MDI, and then a G01 Z25.4 (was in metric) everything
worked fine. But the next command command a G00 X1 Y2 (do not
remember the actual coordinates), the Z axis took off with the X
and Y!
Is this a bug? Known ? What gives ?
73, Don…
