Fusion360 to MPCNC

[manolo (Manolo Suarez)]

I tried but I have no idea what to change

[AVSIT]

Thanks!

I just finished assembling our MPCNC, have surfaced the table and created a spoilboard file with CAM paths. Seems when I open the DXF file in Estlcam I get the CNC Controller to pop up with a “Integrated Controller not enabled”. I will start troubleshooting and looking for advice on the board.

Looks like the variable is “Probe on Start” and you set it to “no”

[manolo (Manolo Suarez)]

Correct, but when you set to NO should skip the Zprobe is this correct or not? if set to Yes should ask for the Zprobe home but in my TFT28 I don’t have any button to resume after the M0, so the work is standby waiting for input

I think the pp was written with the assumption of the lcd. Only way around it, i think, is edit the pp or edit the gcode.

@manolo

but in my TFT28 I don’t have any button

Sorry. I missunderstood your issue.

Tony is correct. Without a button, you have no way of using the Zprobe.

The PP also looks for a button press if you set the spindle speed to ‘manual control’. For your system I’d set the spindle speed to automatic and then disable the Zprobe. It should at least then produce gcode that your machine can run.

Then, you can consider replacing your screen with an LCD with buttons.

BTW… your issue is the same as this one:

Guffy Post Processor

I have no idea how to enforce tft28 to pause on m0. Guys have similar problems with m600 and it seems that the issue still not fixed. I heard that there is exists special version of mks tft displays designed for their grbl-compatible cnc board. May be firmware for this tft display works properly, i dunno. You don’t need to change sources. Thikness of probing plate can be specified in generation properties in fusion ui dialog.

Guffy responded that there is no way for the PP to create gcode for the TFT to ‘resume’ after a pause command.

What we need is for Marlin to support a gcode to resume, then your tft can add that capability. Without that, or the tft being rewritten to not send M0 and implement the pause itself, there isn’t a way to fix it.

I was using atom.io as a text editor to find and replace and manually tweak gcode that was causing problems as a post process to the post processor.

Atom has colored syntax and a code package, but most text editors would probably work

[kweks]

Could you add a custom continue button that sends code M108 (break and continue) from the TFT? Just getting into this issue and looking for ways to make it work

Link does not work

[jeffeb3]

Yeah, the forums have moved. @vicious1 can edit his post, but it is now a caregory: #software:fusion360

[blomsd (Dan)]

The latest version of the bigtreetech firmware for their TFTs now works with the M00 command. On screen you can just press resume after M00.

I just merged the change into my firmware for my TFT35v2 but it should be similar for all the TFTs by that company.
