Okay, now that y'all have helped me sort out this little problem, how
about
the bigger problem.

In the second part of the program(G55), I want to do an arc in the ZX
plane
(G18), use G68 (coordinate rotation) to move the tool to the opposite end
of the part, and repeat the arc.

When run as written, the first time the sub runs, it does what is
expected.
The second time, called from :O2002, it runs again in the same place.

Edit one of :O2001

:O2001 G01 X2.0 Z4. G69 G17
G18 G03 X2.5 Z3.5 I.0 K-.5
M99

The first sub run is okay. The second sub run: moves to X-2. Y2. instead
of X-2. Y-2. then the arc move is CW down (as the first run) then moves to
X2.

Edit two:

Move G69 G17 down to their own line. Same results as edit one.

Edit three:

Remove G17. Same results as edit one and two.

Edit 4:

Remove G69. First sub run is okay. Second run moves to X-2 Y2, arc move
CW up (6 to 9 o'clock).

Removing the G18 move and replacing it with some linear moves produces
moves like I expected. First sub run goes to X2. Y2., second sub run goes
to X-2. Y-2.

It was suggested in another forum that I didn't need to have a G18 at all.
I tried removing that and got an "illegal plane selection" error.

Any ideas?


Keep in mind that G68 AND G69 are modal.

You have in O2002 a G68, but you cancel it in 02001

Try it this way...
