I just started with CNC Carving, and am encountering an issue when offline carving.
My CNC 3018 Pro has a little control box for manual movement and inserting SD cards with G-Code.
Test files and hand written G-Code works well with the offline box.
Easel is working well when connected by USB.
But the exported G-Code from Easel does not work on the manual control box.
I want to position the machine in the basement due to noise.
So Offline carving is quite important for me.
Does anyone have an idea what might be the issue?
I only see when opening the Easel Export file that the G-Code is not formatted.
But that should only be a visual issue, isn’t it?
Ok, after some research, it seems the formatting is the issue.
I checked also in Carbide Create. Same issue.
When using GRBL Controller (v3.6.1) I only need to modify the first lines, then the exported Codes are working.
But the manual box needs clean code with one command per line.
Is there a way to modify the exported files concerning formatting?
I haven’t found a button with setting for the Export procedure so far.
Is there such a button somewhere?
The user has found that the exported G-Code format is causing issues, even after trying Carbide Create. When using the GRBL controller (v3.6.1), making modifications to the first few lines allows the exported code to work correctly. However, for manual control boxes, clean code with one command per line is needed. The user is looking for a way to modify the format of the exported file but has not found a button in the software for setting the export process. It is suggested that the user try manually editing the exported G-Code file or use text editing software or scripts to automate the process, ensuring a clean format with one command per line to meet the requirements of the manual control box.
