G-code generated by 3-axis CNC - is this a bug?

Post by akeller »

I do not know G-code well, but my emulator reports an illegal syntax at line 10 in the generated code. The plunge rate is set to 1000.0 in the ToolBox options.
Is the 'F' character missing in front of 1000.0 in line 10? Is this a bug or is the 'F' not strictly needed?

Version used:  Gearotic 2.30080, problem easily repeatable, occurs many times in the G-code.

1  ( No Prolog Set )( GCode Objects Begin. )
2  ( Object Spur Begins )
3  G0 X0.027  Y-0.499  Z2.000  A0.000 
4  (  Shaft Hole path - Inside Profile )
5  ( Tool --: EndMill2mm posted as T1 )
6  M5
7  M6 T1
8  G43H1
9  M3 S12000
10  G1 Z-3.000  1000.0

Hi :

Ouch, yes, that looks like a bug. Are you using the default post processor?
I will investigate and repair.

Thx

Hi

I did not change the post processor, so i guess it must be the default post processor.
I am a new user and this is my first project.

Thank you, Alfred.
