I have tried a couple of carves with took changes. I am using Carbide Create Free now. I have been setting my retract height to 1/4-1/2" so it can speed things up. However, when the machine pauses for the tool change, it only retracts to that short height, making it impossible to change the tool. Is…

Hey Jim, sorry that noone answered to your post (I was absent at that time). For the answer, see above . Welcome to the forum!

…ah and I forgot: Welcome to the forum!

How do you confirm that you changed the bit? Will it ask that question? I put the changes in, now I will make a program and test that out to make sure I entered it correctly. It sounds like it will be very nice to change bits. Thank you very much for your reply.

Hey Steve, [image] scamp: How do you confirm that you changed the bit? a popup window with two buttons, “Continue” and “Stop” [image] scamp: Will it ask that question? sure.

I tried the changes. for some reason something is wrong. I get a message that says no fit after I probe the first time. I get an error message before I probe the second time. I will try to attach a picture of them. [GOPR0699] [G0010697]

Hey Steve, can you post the entire contents of ‘tool-change’ field.

Hey Steve, I checked the code in the example again, no errors here (except when -100 mm is not enough and it does not find the probe after moving downwards this distance, then it signals the “Could not find probe block during probing!” error). You have to know that the limit errors always have to …

Hey Steve, just made a few tests. Despite the G28 command moved the Z into the highest possible position (Z home), ‘G38.2 axes’ computes target position with offsets valid, hence the possibility of a limit error. For the moment, depending on your program loaded (that defines the offsets), try to d…

What is the procedure for changing the bit? After the first cut is made the router goes back to the home position. Not the original probe position. There is a message on the screen that says Gcode message. (See Picture). When I Click continue the router starts slowly lowering to within about 1/2 in.…
