I have seen it reported as a bug in the archives. The developers stated that *not* scanning the program for modal codes was a *feature*. That is a nice way to say we don't want to do it!
You could never make the control idiot proof. The operator needs to know not to restart in the middle of cutting a T-slot in incremental mode or something impossible. But I see no reason why the control could not select the right tool, start the spindle/coolant, select the offsets and plane, and then move to the correct location and get started. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
