My Plotter Crash
Posted: Sat Feb 23, 2013 7:25 pm
I was testing a plotter attachment I created and on this particular run it crashed. The problem was the G3 Arch command. I had read that the firmware supported this command but apparantly not.

I used VcarvePro CAM software to generate the gcode. I had to find a post processor that did not use Arcs.
Here is a result of the success.

Now I need to go out and experiment with the pause command so I can change pens mid stream.
