The post processor for Mach3-Inch includes the starting block;
[START_CHAR]
[SEQ_PRECHAR][SEQNUM][DELIMITER]G00 G49 G40.1 G17 G80 G50 [OUTPUT_MODE_CODE]
[SEQ_PRECHAR][SEQNUM][DELIMITER][OUTPUT_UNITS_CODE]

According to Mach3 (Artsoft) G40.1 is not supported. In fact, I cannot find any reference to G40.1 anywhere.

Should this be changed to G40, or does it have another significance?

Thanks

As some of our users had asked for it in the past, we added G40.1 to the program start up code in the post processor. You could change this to G40 which is used to cancel cutter compensation.

Thanks

What does G40.1 do?
