G18/19 Plane

Hi All

I am struggling to use the G18/19 Plane in UCCNC.

I am using UCCNC ATC Arcs mm pp and changed the plane selection from G17 to G18 in the post processor header as well as the "J" values to "K" for all G02 and G03 but I can't seem to get it right, I get an error in the script in aspire( See attached ).

I ended up doing something which makes it work as intended in the UCCNC previewer but get incorrect arc radius(See attached), I'm guessing it has to do with the I,J,K values.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I can't help you to modify the postprocessor, but on the 3rd picture you have X, Y, I and K. If you use arcs in G18 then you need X, Z and I, K (or R instead of I and K) to define the arc.
