Re: AHHA pro vs. Deskam

Joe

I have a lot of machines running on cnc pro and I have never seen a
problem as you describe.

When you create your programs, du you enter the redundant modal
positions? I find that its best to enter them, especially when you
use the restart feature.

What are you using to create your programs?

what version of cnc pro are you running?

I have sent you an email directly to your email address on the post,
if you dont receive it please contact me directly at
