There is a Post Processor with VCarve called "SCM Xilog ISO (mm)" that looks like it generates code exactly the same as the example you posted.

If you download the VCarve trial (presuming you haven't already) you can generate the code for the sample files using that Post Processor and have a look yourself.

When, and if, you're satisified that the code is correct you can try it out on the machine.

Thanks for reply.
I know that pp called "SCM Xilog ISO (mm)" , but its not working.The machine used program called XILLOG 3Routolink.
Wen i try to open the file save by Vcarve with *.pgm extension , its show the folowing screen (see picture).
I dont know what to edit , and when i try to enter the grafic mode its give me an error.I also share 2 links with the pgm file to see for yourself the g-code.
First link its called vista cafe2, and its saved from Vcarve with SCM Xilog ISO (mm) post processor.
The second one its called hellen , and its a program thats work normally on my CNC.

Try renaming the vista cafe2.pgm file to vista cafe2.xxl

The Xilog software expects text files to be in xxl format and binary files in pgm format from what I can see in posts from people with similiar problems.

Its not working.Operation is not permited.Is working if i converted de xxl file in to pgm file inside Xilog program.But is the same, if i make the dxf conversion in Xilog in to pgm.Those two conversion inside Xilog its working, but i have to chek every line of program for errors.
I dont know why the pgm file that was generated by vcarve is not recognize by Xilog software.
If you or, enyoane else want.i can share a link with my Xilog software to try it yourself.

Sorry that's as far as I can help really. From what I've read in other posts you have to convert it as you're doing.

Type "Xilog" into the search box at the top of the page and you'll get the other posts and you might be able to contact one of the users who have got it working for further help.

It's also worth doing a similiar search on CNCZone as others have posted similiar issues there as well.
