Getting an unexpected word error in g code in planet cnc on export 

[seth.madore]

More info is going to be needed. Do you have a screenshot, nc file, F3D file perhaps? Are you getting this error at the machine, or when posting the code in Fusion?

[thedoncutta]

At the machine I will post a screenshot shortly after church

I’m getting this error at the machine

Which post processor are you using? It looks like it's failing on a drill cycle, is that correct?

[thedoncutta]

Not sure!!! This is the processor someone found for me but it’s not the correct one I guess…

Can you share the file that has the toolpaths that are creating this error? Do you know what your machine needs to see for drilling cycles? (do you have a programming manual for your machine)

Hi Seth

Its actually the smoothing mode, excerpt from planet cnc manual:

G64 - Blend Enable
Usage: G64 <P> <Q> - P (optional) = tolerance 
In blend mode sharp corners will be rounded and the machine may never reach the programmed 
point before a direction change. Optional tolerance can be set.
Parameters:
#<_blendmode> - (R) current blend mode
#<_blend_tol> - (R) current blend tolerance

Not sure why the machine doesnt like the Q value but i dont think its needed

This can be changed in the NC Program dialog:

Change it from G64 with PQ, to G64 with P
