Ray,

That was me who posted that message. Basicly it was a 10,000 line program
that I downloaded from the internet somewhere. I was using it for testing
of the BDI installation only and not cutting anything. It had an error that
had somehow creeped into it when transfering it by floppy to the EMC
computer as the error was not on my original version (actually it had
numerous errors that were not in the original but this one was first).

The error was something like this, not exact but close enough
machine was in G01 mode

N1500 Y1.23 Z-.01
N1501 Y2.34 Z-.11
N1502 Y3.45 Z-
N1504 Y4.56 Z-.12

As you can see line 1502 has no Z value, just a negative sign. It would just
stop on line 1501, no error message, no warning. The error was off the
screen and it was a combination of me assuming a file size limit problem
and just not looking close enough at the file to find the error. Will found
it in seconds. Seems like EMC should have given an error message though.
