FAQ - AdvantEdge Production Module 3D
What can I do if my tool path does not appear correctly?
If the tool path does not extend as far as it should and there are circles where there should not be, it is possible the toolpath goes beyond the current limitations set for your machine. The transient file (Transient.tra) defines the maximum travel of your machine. Increase the X max, Y max, Z max, X min, Y min, and/or Z min to a larger number that will allow for your machine to travel the necessary distance defined in your tool path.
If you are using G-code and your tool path does not appear correctly, make certain that the correct parameter file is being used. The parameter file needs to explicitly define the type of arc definition used in the G-code files. Some arc values (I, J, K) are defined as a distance from start to the center; you would have to use Fanuc_DEL.Production Module for such files. Other arc values (I, J, K) are defined as the absolute center coordinates; you would have to use the Fanuc_ABS.Production Module for such files.
