error in pocket

[Mcam Nut]

I am having a problem with pocketing, It looks fine in mastercam, but the code is not right, this code should be maching a d-shaped hole, and looks fine in backplot, and verify, but is not posting the same code, it is just making small arcs, and not maching the right contour. did anyone see this before?

I haven't seen this issue myself but when I back plotted your code it started out like a D then got funny. Could you upload your file to the FTP site for someone to look at it. I won't be at work much longer today but maybe one of the other guys could look at it for you or I can on Monday.

Im having problems conecting to the ftp, but e-mail me if you want and i will send you the file

Have you always used R in your posted code?

 

You want to try changing the post to use I, J and see if that gives you a difference.

you also have arc ouput settings in your control definition
