Cycle Time v7.0

Hello,

In Version 7, I created a simple program that makes a move using G01 F100 X100.
The vericut log shows the total cycle time of 4 min.  (instead of 1min or slightly more.)

Is there any other option that needs to be turned on/off to get accurate prediction of times?

P.S.: Admin: Sorry if the same topic is posted elsewhere. I appreciate if you can kindly move this post to the right place.

Thanks

Prasad

Re: Cycle Time v7.0

In you test, make sure that your initial position is X0. and that you are moving 100 inch or mm.
Are you in G01 mode?

to test, I opened vericut.vcproject
MDI: X0.
Info > Status
-- time is .1275
MDI: G01X100F100.

-- time is 1.1275  a difference of 1 minute as expected.

Re: Cycle Time v7.0

That makes sense.
I had setting defined for inital machine location. I was under the impression that the machine X is at 0 at the very beginning. But in vericut point of view, it is at X500. Hence the time differences.

Thanks a lot.
