I have been running X3 for some time now with a post that i have no complaints about untill now. I need to output arcs with z moves at the same time, hope I said that right..... all the switches ive played with in the machine def, have so far made no difference. When trying to do a helix, I get point to point no matter what i mess with, and would like to try arcs to see if it will run faster, as one of my machines has no look ahead. Any tips very much appreaciated. Thanks gents

First off, make sure your control def is set top output them

If it is, then check your tolerance to make sure it is not set too large

If the post is old enough, you "may" need to set it in the post
