I've attached the g-code in case it would be helpful.

Hi Brian:

  Yes, a large part of the problem is that the depth was a single pass with a final depth equal to that pass. I need to fix this this
though so it doesnt happen again. Hopefully by later today..

Your file start with no Z move because it thinks it started at zero and needed to cut at zero.. Im not sure why its going to .25 .. But Ill see whats
causing the issue and kill it. Ill post there when Im done..

Thx

Hi Brian:

  Can you tell me your  ZDn/Pass , Depth and final pass settings on that job? Im setting up safeties to make
it so that kiond of error cant occur anymore.

Thx

First, let me caution you on the settings I will relay in response to your request: I cannot be certain I didn't (and I believe I might have) overwrite the gth file from the version I used to create the g-code I used to cut the project.  That said (or written, I guess), I've attached a snippet of the status screen from G2 to provide you with the information you requested

Hoped the g-code might have been of more help.

Regards,

Brian.

Hi Brian:

  Wont download for some reason.. reports 0 bytes.

I assume fomr the code that the finalpass was set to .5" while the depth was set to .25.

This ,  I think, caused the algorithm to see the first pass woudl be below final pass start, so it started
the first pass at full depth - final pass ( +.25") which made it do its first pass above the material. (Ive made thgis impossible
as of next release.).

  Im still unsure why the ramped edge I see in your phot though.. Ill see about tightening up some more logical tests . Id try again
with a small finalpass so your tabs are liek 1/8" or so..  Ill try for a release tomorrow.

Thanks

I've attempted to attached the tap file again.  Hope it was properly attached/downloaded.

Thanks.

Hi Brian:

It was the photo of settings I couldnt open...tap file was fine. :)

Snippet of the settings was less reliable anyway given the likelihood of changes to the settings since I created the g-code.

Brian:

Thats what I figured. Ill add a couepl more safeties, then Ill issue a new download. I think it was just having a final pass too large that did you in..
Let me know if you do another and anything looks strange.
