It should be parameter 3201.2 Stevo

Here's a little more information from the machine nameplate: Hartford model: M08-10MA S/N: 8812080 Thanks, Mike

My guess is that you have your G2 and G3 backwards judging by your numbers .

Madkind: I do not have a back up for your Hartford, sorry. Maybe someone else in the forum can help. GP.

I tried to set the parameter and it would not take the change. Thanks G

yep, set up just like that. I am not sure, what happened. I probably should mention(sorry) that I turned off the machine in between. after having troubles at first, I turned the machine off and back on, and it ran through almost 14 programs before alarming. then it quickly went down from there, so I turned it off to go home. as I was leaving, I thought I would try the last ideas and it worked after that. Thanks again.

Hopefully, yes. Al.

First thank you for your reply, I bought the machine 6-7 years ago. At that time i didnt have this problem. But 2,5 years ago one of the boards burnt out and was replaced. i wasnt here that time. machines parameters was lost. until that time i am having problems like that. 4th axis was gone too but i solved it. all this time i didnt changed postprocessor etc. because of that i am searching for parameters.

Check your drawing. The centre of the circle must lie on the perpendicular bisector of the line joining the current position of the tool and the end point of the arc. Use radius method. You will always get an arc unless the radius is smaller than half the distance between the start and end points of the arc.

Alright, did some research and got confused. First thing I did was check my parameters, they are as follows. P0000 - 00000000 P0020 - 1 P0021 - 1 P5000 - 00000000 P5001 - 1 P5002 - 3 P5003 - 0 P5110 - 3 P5111 - 2 P5112 - 10 P5120 - 1 P5121 - 2 P5122 - 10 P5130 - 3 P5131 - 1 P5132 - 11 Couple of questions come to mind after the research. 1. Most people say to set 5110-5112 and 5120-5122 and 5130-5132 to the same respective values. Should I do...
