Strange pocketing issue

Lost steps would shift the remainder of the toolpath in the opposite direction of the lost steps.

In this case it sounds like the toolpath didn’t finish. This is usually some kind of signal interruption, either EM interference or a loss of communication. It could also be the software (CM) hiccuped and stopped sending data. Tough to troubleshoot. Make sure your USB/Serial comm to the machine is solid.
