Re: Problem with Dyna 2400 CNC milling machine (ARC Problem)

My guess is that the some line end delimiter is missing like a CR LF
and the interpreter is either going to a default ARC param or
misinterpreting the rest of the line..? Are there benign control
codes you can stuff before and after the ARC command to test out?
