How do i change the dwell in my drill cycle to out P1000 with no decimal point.
I take it I have to use a Format Statement , somehow, to get this to work, or possibly not.
I read some of the post documentation but it just left me dazed and confused.
Attached is my post...#CMPEDIT are all my changes so far...I'm dowloading MPMASTER now to see if they have a switch built-in.
Forgive my terrible lack of programming knowledge I am learning slowly.

Program check is something i only ever used in memory mode. When i hit check during a cycle it allows me to see distance to go and modal commands on the left along with the program lines on the right.
I've had that set at "break at quads" for all planes...
Really strange linearize does work but if i can't tell in a backplot like cimco which path will gouge than I'd have to do the whole program.
My boss seems to think it might have something to do with modal commands for arcs.
I changed this setting in control def. from .0001 to .005 and .010...the output was identical lol using beyond compare.
So i don't think this is a cure all
