Here is a sample of the code I am trying to run. The tool will move to the correct offset position, will spiral down to -0.180, completing the second line of the spiral, then it simply stops and I have an error.
Error Status: Illegal move mode or command while cutter compensation active.

I solved this problem. It was actually about 10 lines ahead. I did not have a G1 to come out of G42. At the end of the sequence, originally it went G0 Z7.0, G40. Changed it to G1 Z7.0 F100.0, G40 Y0.0 and it works now.
