Cutter comp for volume sequence

[mz]

I'm having trouble getting a volume sequence to output with a G41. I have the comp parameter turned ON and a small lead in/lead out radius value. I also have a small .010 tangent step with a 90 deg approach and exit. I've used volume sequences before with C-comp successfully. Don't know what I'm doing wrong this time? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt.

do you have the "rough_option" parameter set to profile? Also "cut_entry_ext" to lead_in. and "cut_exit_ext" to lead out.

The "rough option" was set to "rough and prof" with the profile stock allow set to "0". I didn't see the "cut_entry_ext" or "cut_exit_ext" option you mentioned. I did have the "lead_in" and "lead_out"  option set to "yes" for both.

After I posted my comment, I was messing around with different setting options, I ended up remaking the sequence with the same parameters and it then posted with the G41 like I was looking for. Hmmm.

Thanks for your suggestions.
