As far as I know, Splines code with a combination of Arcs and Lines, depending on the values set in SMF questions 91, 99, and 106.  There may be others...
 
My .smf is as follows, and I get various G01, G02, and G03 commands to profile a spline.
 
91. Maximum deviation from true arc: 0.0001
99. Maximum programmable arc radius: 9999.9999
106. Maximum deviation from true curve: 0.0001
 
Hope this helps,
 
Coup

Subject: [mfg-smartcam] Coding a spline.

Doe's anyone know how to code a spline using G02/G03(Arc Command) in your CG instead of G01(Line Command).  I am using Advanced Turning V11.5 on a Hardinge T-42 with a Fanuc 18T control.
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
