Sheetcam

[Plasron]

In Sheetcam, post processed, open Mach3, load the tap file, start G-code, the blasted thing starts drawing circles and not cutting the part.
Please HELP I’m pulling my hair out trying to figure out what I changed to cause this to happen.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

incremental or absolute mode?

check the config tab

You need to list your electronics and the post processor you are using, this is not a cookie cutter setup where one size fits all. Different interface boards require different post processors. If you have a parallel port BOB it is not the same as having USB BOB or ether connections.
A simple look at the number of post processors in SheetCam shows this.

Another quick question, is it in Sheetcam, Inkscape or Mach3, changing the Post Processor.
Thanks

Absolute cords.

the post processor is in SheetCam see attached screenshot and there is no Gorilla or Gecko post processor listed.
Maybe some other member will know which post processor you should be using.
