Hi, I've been looking into the canned cycles in LinuxCNC and the relative version is odd.
The gcode documentation has an example: G0 X1 Y2 Z3 G91 G98 G81 X4 Y5 Z-0.6 R1.8 L3 It should make a nice pattern, but it drills in the wrong direction (down-to-up). The R-word need to be -1.8 (negative) to make it drill in the right direction. However, the documentation states a sequence of rapids/moves and indicates the positions which I cannot reproduce. F.ex. I cannot create a parameter combination that would move to the noted Z positions. Am I missing something or is there bitrot in either the documentation or interpreter? -- Greetings Bertho (disclaimers are disclaimed) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Managing the Performance of Cloud-Based Applications Take advantage of what the Cloud has to offer - Avoid Common Pitfalls.
