it doesnt do it always, but most of the time, when its done with a part and returns to program zero, i get the exceeded y axis error. doesnt affect anything because it only happens at the end. Had this problem before?

i would like to see your code/screenshot of it. Pending on when you get the error in the sequence could be a setting in the CAD causing the last movement to go somewhere the driver doesnt like.

-99??? I know that isnt right.
In cad go to MACHINE/MACHINING DEFAULTS.
Press SETUP
Make sure your ORIGIN and END POINT are set to the same lower left corner.
Press APPLY.
Reoutput the Gcode.

ok if you have a file having issues then send me the cdl and gm files so I can take a look.

Why are your coordinates in the negative towards the end of the gcode, the X value is negative. Everything should be in the positive from Zero on up, look at Layout > Material Size and be sure your Origin is in Bottom Left corner of the box. It could also be that you sheet is rotated, go to Job Setup in the VMD software and click Align Corner then Click Align Edge and see what that does with the gcode.

ok heres the most recent piece (the one i took the pics of the error) the machine doesnt seem to care what the piece is. and it only happens sometimes.
this one was bad like -88 or whatever. sometimes its only -.9 sometimes its -11.xxx.
could slight play in my gear to track meeting cause something like this?

Something with your CAD...
I would like to log into your CAD system and take a look as I try to output and the code is correct.
Im in safety training this am. Ill email you when Im done.

Alright... SOLVED
Keep in mind when you are changing your machine bed size in the CAD verify that when you OUTPUT your code that the MACHINE LIMITS in MACHINE/MACHINING DEFAULTS SETUP screen reflect the changes.

So the machine limits should be set to your bed size in machine set up correct.
