G83 peck drilling cycle on a lathe

Has anyone been able to get the G83 peck drill cycle on a lathe to work.
It seems to not retract correctly or full retract between pecks.
If you modify the turn_thread_cycles_2ax_fanuc from the samples directory you can see what happens.
Remove line N420 and change N430 to N0430 G83 Z-1.5 Q0.25 R0 F3.

Thanks
Clayton

Re: G83 peck drilling cycle on a lathe

Found a solution. The ctl needs to be in the x/y plane for it to work correctly. Not the way the control works on the machine but I got Vericut to simulate now without any program mods.
