How to set an error flag if % is not first in G-code tape
I want to get an error in G-code verification when a % is not the first character in a tape. My current Vericut version is 6.2.1. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Re: How to set an error flag if % is not first in G-code tape
Hello,
It might not be 100% what you are looking for, but this should be enough.
1°) Create a variable that you will initialize to 0.
This variable should be triggered to 1 when reading the '%'.
2°) Test this value in a Word that you call in the beginning of your program
Try not to choose the 'N' word to avoid useless testing for each line.
Why not the Tool change (M06) or the plane selection (G17) for example.
==> If your variable is still at 0, that means no '%' was called yet, you can then display an error message.
Let us know if this is ok like that.
