Probably because they both have the same O-number. EMC2 uses the O-number to tell which Do belongs to each While.

so i can't use the same do/while more then once ?

Because you are not saying "offset X by this much" you are saying "offset X so that the current position is this value"

Thanks

The only problem I see is you don't assign #2 back to 0 for the second loop. So being a do then test loop you only get one pass.

I'm not sure if it is required but It is better to use different numbers for your loops.

o100 do
...
o100 while

o101 do
...
o101 while

cool...thanks...didn't think about position.
