PowerRoute CNC and Fusion 360

[RCD]

I finally got my Power Route Kit assembled...
I'm looking forward to getting started in learning how to use CNC in my wood working projects.

I have a couple of issues I could use some help with:
In Fusion 360 when I go to select the post processor configuration file, I do not have the “grbl.cps. – Generic Grbl” as a selection as recommended. (only "grbl / grbl"). Is that some I need to be concerned about? When I try to run the .nc file I get a "error 20" and it doesn't run. I'll keep researching this issue but I could use a little help getting pointed in the right direction. (I'm new to CNC and learning something new every time I open my laptop)

Thanks for any help the you can provide...

Congrats on the build! Looking good.

Error 20 usually means there is an unsupported command.

On the face of it, I’m not concerned about the post that’s listed there but something is awry with a g code command it is writing.

Can you post the g code please?

Excellent job on the build - very nice indeed!

I've been tinkering with the program and it looks like the problem was the M6 line. I removed that line the got the program to load and run.

I am surprised it threw error 20, but m6 is a tool change command that UGS flags. You can also put M6 in the pattern remover in UGS and it will ignore them in the future.

I'll take a look at that. thanks.
