Can anyone tell me how to convert rapid moves to a set feed rate using mastercam18? i have 5000 lines of code and for whatever my reason my lathe wont accept it with rapid moves. when i convert the first couple rapid moves to feed it runs fine. the code is good, machine doesnt alarm out, it just sits there when it gets to the first rapid move. i included the code. the last line is when it just sits there doing nothing. but will orientate initially just fine
