Hello Tom
I have run into the "unexpected coordinated motion buffer underflow" problem.
So, this is what happend: I haven't rebooted or turned off computer for a while setting the mill and kflop. I have run a lot of g-code and had no issues at all roa about a month or more.
Two days ago I have shut down the computer and the problem begins. Same code starts giving me "unexpected coordinated motion buffer underflow". I have increased the lookahead time from 3 seconds all way to 30 seconds, no result. If I run same code step by step - no issues, it capable to run one string at the time. Moreover. if it is just simple linear motion - no problems at all, it happens only at complex movements, like this piece of code:
N870 G00 X40. Y40.
N871 S3000 M03
N872 G00 Z-7.5
N873 G01 Z-10.25 F500.
N874 G03 X36.491 Y40. I-1.755 J0. F1000.
N875 G03 X36.491 Y40. I3.509 J0. F1000.
N876 G03 X47.019 Y40. I5.264 J0. F1000.
N877 G03 X47.019 Y40. I-7.019 J0. F1000.
N878 G03 X40. Y40. I-3.509 J0. F1000.
N879 G01 Z-13. F500.
N880 G03 X36.491 Y40. I-1.755 J0. F1000.
N881 G03 X36.491 Y40. I3.509 J0. F1000.
N882 G03 X47.019 Y40. I5.264 J0. F1000.
N883 G03 X47.019 Y40. I-7.019 J0. F1000.
N884 G03 X40. Y40. I-3.509 J0. F1000.
N885 G00 Z20.
The only thing different on the machine: I have readjusted the gibs and nut preload tp get rid of the backlash. But, as I said before, no problems with linear motion up to 2000mm/min and it is capable to do it step by step.
Any thoughts?
Best regards,
