Video to follow.
There was a slight pause at the start of the next pass, is that backlash or is it just in exact stop mode or?
I presume the way the control creates a facing pass is exact stop. I ran some test pockets and circles the other day and they looked to be CV.
There’s no GCode here though so it’s hard to tell.
.....And this isn't (at this time) a business machine for me so I am not reliant on it.
