Group,
I am writing a code gen for a Sieman's 810D/840D control. This is
used in a router shop for MDF machining. The code is fine except for
one thing, I am getting a segmented finish on contoured areas. I need
to get into a contouring mode but don't seem to have the correct
information. I have pasted the toolpath, the machine is a HSM
machine. After the FFWON block, I was told to insert POL3D (to turn
contouring on) and at the end after the FFWOF I should insert POL2D
(to turn contouring back off). The machine doesn't accept the program
when I put these items into the program. The error is "Data format
does not exist or has not been released"
Any ideas?
TIA
Michael
