Wrapping post help
I have an issue with my post I need my post to put out a feed rate on each line and I cannot figure out how to tell post processor to do this. I'm running Mach 3 I'm not sure if there is a setting in mach3 which will enable this to work or not any help on this would be great thanks.

Re: Wrapping post help
Not sure if I understand, is this what you're looking for:put out a feed rate on each line

Re: Wrapping post help
What I'm looking to do is in my posted G-Code I need there to be a feed value on each G1 line. What's happening now is the very first G1 line it puts out a feed value but every other G1 line there is no feed value, so in mach3 when Irun a file once it gets to a G1 line without a feed value mach3 just sits & does nothing.
In my other cam systems there is a feed rate on each line of code and mach3 runs as expected.

Example: G-code to cut two boxes and a circle:
Are you saying that the hi-lighted values don't appear in your G-code?
What PP format did you select to save as?

Think I solved it. It turns out that it needed the G94, I had a G93 and with this code a F value is required on each G1 line.

Re: Wrapping post help
In most instances, the F remains set until another F changes it. It isn't usually necessary to have it in each line. Dale

Re: Wrapping post help
G94 is units per minute
G93 is inverse time feed rate mode
Vectric software is not capable of producing G93 code. At least not that I am aware of.
