Re: Post processing fails with Fanuc pp

I checked some of my old G-code files written for LinuxCNC. The only place an underscore (_) occurs is in the second line where the postprocessor is identified. Such as xxxxx_post.py. Therefore I suspect that FreeCAD is not adding any of those characters. If there are more (_) than the post ID then...

Re: Post processing fails with Fanuc pp

In the file 2003.txt the trouble maker is the expression "(Clearance Height = 5.0)" in front of the command. I guess Fanuc outputs this "009 illegal adress input" means "something wrong!"

Re: Post processing fails with Fanuc pp

One of the forbidden characters seems to be the underscore "_" unfortunately it does not seem to matter where it is, it just gets upset about any of those _ not matter were in the file. (comment or code) The ideal situation would be: path magic with some guidance by me simulation post save...
