Hi,
I am trying to run my first nc program created using Fusion 360 (free version) and OneFinity Community Edition v202110.141 post processor. It is a simple design containing my initials and a border raised 3 mm. It has one 2d pocket, one 2d contour and one 2d adaptive clearing. This is just to test and learn. I ran the generated toolpath on 1F and immediately I get the error mentioned in the subject line. Being new to Fusion 360 and IF, I have no idea what it means, where it is coming from and how to avoid / resolve it. I know I did something stupid and need help figuring it out. The line that causes this error is the line: N40 G43 Z15 H1
Following is the first few lines of the program:

I did not change any of the speed and feed rate and used whatever Fusion 360 filled in with. I donāt know if it was good or bad. I used 1/8 flat end mill from the sample tool library.
Thanks for the quick response.
I read the document and I think I am following the instructions. Here is what I did.
Turned on display
Turned on controller
Clicked on OK when it prompted me to Home. Machine moved to home position.
Jogged the machine close to the position, over the work piece, where I can use the probe to set the zero. Z-Axis shows -96 (mm).
Loaded the file. The controller parses the file and Execute icon is displayed.
I click on Execute icon and the same error displays again.
I have previously executed a Carbide Create program and didnāt encounter any error. This time the toolpath was generate using F360. So, what I am I missing here?
Here is some additional info.
I deleted G-Codes that were loaded. Restarted the controller. Homed machine. All three axes show Homed and OK. I load the file. The controller parses the file and immediately Z-Axis shows OVER, even before I hit execute.
I am just puzzled and stuck.
Alex, o, In couldnāt. After the machine was homed and all axes showed Homed and OK, I jogged the machine close to the stock where I wanted to set the zero. Then I loaded the file. As soon as I load the file, the Z-Axis showed OVER and error pops up.
Can I set the zero before I load the toolpath? If that is the case, then I donāt know how to do it. If I remember it correctly, the first time I was only prompted to set the zero after I hit Execute / Run button. And, as I mentioned, the error pops up right after the toolpath is parsed and before I hit Run button.
