I’m getting the error as below on my windows machine, but not on my Mac (using the same files) - I’m running v 4.09 on both. Recently I tried installing an old version of CM 4.0.3 but am now back on 4.09. I also tried turning it on/off
You tried running it through another gcode sender by any chance? When I was working on the post-processors I found references to Arcs not being handled well in grbl, but there were conflicting reports on how real that issue was/is…
Please send that to beta@carbide3d.com — interesting error, probably related to differences in floating point calculation on the two platforms (which arguably, is why one should use integer math for anything which one wants to actually work reliably).
Well to confuse things more it was working with the same code last night and works flawlessly so its not the Gcode. Today I downgraded to 4.03 then back to 4.09 because I had issues with the $$ command since then I’ve been getting this issue in the windows machine.
Mac running Carbide motion is fine. I don’t understand UGS fully, I can’t work out how to jog the machine in that… I get command errors but can check $$ settings
If you can get the windows laptop situated give “GRBL Panel” a shot. I’ve been using it almost exclusively recently and like it quite a lot. Happily talks with grbl 1.1, though grbl will need some additional config to make sure soft limits and the like all work as they should.
Thanks, I might take you up on it some time. Right now I’ve just rolled back to 4.07 on windows which seems to work. However I’m using the Mac as my temp solution.
Just updated the firmware and Carbide3D and have the same error on windows 10. The same files had no trouble with v3.067, so I don’t think the files are an issue. I am using Fusion 360 and have tried files output for both the Shapeoko and a generic grbl.
The offending line appears to be:
G18 G2 X310.059 Z-1 I0.317 K0
Not sure if I am using integer math or not out of Fusion 360.
Let me know, trying to get production rolling asap
Using metric for everything, will try ramping. if version 407 is stable, will see if that works. The spare mac laptop I have won’t take the latest mac os, not sure if that works.
I’m having the same issue with 409. 407 works for my files, but it means I can’t use the fancy new touch probe which arrived this morning . Anyone hear any updates on this?
Same problem when using Fusion360 generated files. I ended up installing both 407 and 409 ( chose different folder during installation) .I’m now using 409 for probing and 407 to run my files. It’s annoying , as you need to home every time you switch, but it works. I hope this gets resolved soon.
