G02, G03 & EMC

Hi,

Hmmm, I understand the I, J, K thing much better now...

But... When I run the EMC with I, J, K, circular interpolation on my
machine I get errors and the machine stops. The error is: beginning and
end radius do not match (paraphrased from my memory). I rewrote the
same exact drawing using R format instead of I, J, K and everything went
just fine.

This machine was run on AHHA and I had the same radius problem with I,
J, K beginning and end radius not being the same. The fix was to loosen
up the tolerances just a bit so the machine could use three decimal
point numbers instead of 4 decimal point numbers for I J and K. Could
this be the problem? If so where is that magic information stored in
the EMC?

Problem in a nutshell... Same machine, Same exact drawing, G02 and G03
work with R inputs but not with I, J, K inputs. Solutions?

Did I mention that I'm just the fool to prove nothing is foolproof?

Thanks,

Clint Bach
