Sheetcam G-code not working with Mach3

Post by boogsart »

Hard drive died and had to reinstalled Sheetcam and Mach3.
Thought it was Mach3 but it's sheetcam.
I found that SHEETCAM is not saving the G-codes (now) properly. I have some older G-codes that run just fine and the new G-codes are not running properly (running in MACH3 the torch on/off doesn't work automatically)
I have all the OLD programs MACH3 and Sheetcam installed them without updates and then ran them with updates. same problem
If there are someone out there that has any Ideas how to fix this
THANKS
Kevin

How about doing a before and after comparison of one of the G code files that worked before re post processing and after being re post processed. Perhaps you'll see what has changed. (you are using the same post processor as before?)

I looked at post processor in sheetcam and it was for MACH3 and changed it to MACH3 Plasma and well I got it
I knew it was something simple and I should learn G-code that probably would be a good thing..... but I have enough problem with computers
