Problem with following line of code. P0 in a peck drill cycle. How to solve

Hi everyone,

I have encountered a problem that is new to me. I think i need to install some subroutine to make it work, but i have no clue what to do.

The following line of code appears in my gcode to do a drill peck cycle.:

G98 G83 Z76.421 R104.923 Q5. P0 F100

LinuxCNC gives me an error on the P0 . What could i do about this? I am at a loss but i really want this drill cycle to work. ( SolidCAM postprocessor for 4 axis machine with Rotary Attachment )

The P is actually a pause of a number of seconds. 0 = 0sec P2 would be a 2 second pause between the cycles. So what to do?

Thanks for any help.

Regards,
Stephane

if you change to G82 the P is ignored
or just change to P0,2

can you give us more codelines befor and after

hi.

I just tried to change to 0.2 but that didnt do anything.

in attachment the error code it gives. and here some extra lines of code:

My guess is that linuxcnc can not handle a P word in G83 as this is a typical fanuc behaviour.

if you look carefuller inside the Gcode reference
www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gcode.html

there is the Dwell and the Peck cycle but no PECK dwell cycle

so you may edit your postprocessot on Drill do not output the P
