Everything works until I hit Play - then nothing

Hey David,

@dbld_58

1. The controller software keeps reverting back to automatically update to the latest software - so I was back to 1.2.1 after a reboot. Even when I uncheck the box, it defaults back to a checked auto-update box.

really? Are you sure? Are you saying the controller now updates itself without your interaction?

Usually I suggest to uncheck this setting on the ADMIN page:

and then reload the CONTROL page.

2. I am using the fusion post processor - On startup the machine will home as it should - then I set zero on my 5"x8" workpiece in the middlish front of the waistboard. So far so good. When I load my file, I get “over” on my toolpath. The graphic makes it appear as though my workpiece is the same size as the entire waist board and I moved zero making the workpiece too large. The workpiece in fusion is 5x8.

I am not sure if I understand. You have to make sure two things: 1. That the workpiece zero in your 3D model is zeroed at the same point in your real machine’s workspace, and 2. that your 3D model is not bigger than the maximum workarea (816 x 816 mm for Woodworker model, 1220 mm x 816 mm for Journeyman). See here for explanation.

3. lastly - it now goes to the rear right corner after completing a job…while I like this, could this be what’s causing some of the issue?

I don’t know why it goes to the right rear corner, but I would think it is because your g-code program tells it to do so.
