Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Emc

Thanks to everyone's help I got this far and this is what I learned.
EMC task plan command{ N61 G02 X-2.3261 Y-0.0735 I0.0004 J0.062}called
EMCTASK.cc 229: RS274NGC_error: Radius to end of arc differs from radius
to start.
I tried this with two programs generated with vector and both had the
same error.????
