Title: Only part of Gcode active [Help]
Post by: freak174 on November 28, 2012, 12:14:18 AM

Hello dear members,

Just started using a software called Aspire, to generate 3D toolpaths/routines.

However, Ive successfully managed to save the file as a gcode (saved it as mach2/3 arcs).
But when I upload it into mach3 there is only like 2-3 layers showing up. The rest of the simulation is not there.

When I simulate it in mach3, it starts the routine but after a while it stops and thats where the end of the simulation "picture" is (but, I can see from the list code that there are still more codes to follow).

But I do know that I have a correct code because I simulated it with a program called NCPlot. And it does as it should.

Any suggestions of what Im doing wrong?

Edit:
Seems like it stops at line 500, and I Believe thats the limit for trial version. However, this was included with the CNC I bought so this is very odd. Guess Ill have to Contact the seller.
This is hilarious, thought I was doing something wrong when I used sketchup with sketchucam. Stupid *********.

Thanks and cheers!
