Tool shows up as an error!
« on: September 28, 2012, 10:08:16 AM »
Morning All!

 Just finished building my table, 5x10  CandCNC, and Sheetcam.  I'm pretty close to getting good cuts.  But when I load a tap file from sheetcam the tool always shows up in the error dialog.  I entered all the info from the charts from Hypertherm for 45A finecut consumables    Also sometimes during a cut an error will flash intermittantly about tip voltage, but it flashes by too fast for me to see exactly what tge message is.   Any help would be aopreciated.....   It's great to see the machine workung, just need to do a little more tuning!

The Error window is really an information window as it will display any text that is in your code, so nothing to worry about.

With the C and CNC stuff they have their OWN scrrensets and plugins. You will also be getting error info from the THC side of it as well.

Best to use the CandCNC website and talk to TOM directly over there.  Most of it is NOT standard MACH3 stuff.

Just a thought, (;-) TP
