Newbie here. I’m setting up my Elite machine in Easel and I’m not sure whether I choose GRBL based or non-GRBL for the motion control option? I searched but only found information regarding the buildbotics systems. What do I need to know here in order to set up an Elite machine? Additionally, I’m a…

Pretty sure you can’t control masso thru your computer, so you’ll need to export the gcode. That being said it’s a masso controller, so non-grbl, but it doesn’t matter because of the first part. As to which post processor to use, i can’t help you. As to the vcarve. It will only go as deep as the ve…

Hi, The post processor (file type) for the g code is Masso ARCS in either mm or inches, but that is what it is called in Vectric so I’m not sure about Easel. I think the later vcersions of Vectric (my version of Aspire is 9.5) might have Onefinity Elite as the post processor now. I’m not sure on th…

Thanks Chris & John, I was able to connect my Masso via wifi so I can now send files without having to go into the house and go upstairs where my computer is over and over. I was able to figure out that I needed to be able to export .nc files (Thanks). I did push up the depth of cut and feed rate c…

Off the top of my head, is the surface flat and is your wasteboard surfaced. If you’re zeroing z on a high spot it won’t go as deep as it’s calling for… same with on a low spot going deeper than you want.

Here’s the interesting thing. I have run the file, setting it a various depths (ie. as much as 1/2") and it cuts at the same depth every time. I’ve even manually set the zero points. While the cut is happening, I can see the z setting on the Masso display and it’s usually showing it’s cutting at a z…

I see the same thing on my Masso if I use one of my tools that has the same number as one of the tools that 1F has listed in the tool table it reads as per the table not the Gcode. I see no reason to have the tools listed in the tool table unless you have an ATC. Pat

Having the tool setter it is needed, especially if saving it as a single file

F4. Regardless of where your z zero is, if your file says -.03, it’ll go -.03 from your zero. Machine coords are different than working coordinates

I’ve been having trouble with the touch probe. When I say go to work origin after probing x and y, it’s always slightly off. I’ve tried measuring with my electronic callipers but they are rubbish and I think are the problem, as the measurement of the touch probe with my callipers that I entered into…

Hey John,

you know you can’t use the 3-Axis Touch Plate with a v-bit?
