Program stops at G53 was created by bmklawt
Hello,

I recently had to change the hard drive in my LinuxCNC set up and reload all the Pico System PPMC files, don't know if this matters but thought I'd mention it.
Before the hard drive failure I was using Mastercam to write and post my Gcode and it worked fine, since I lost the hard drive I also lost my access to Mastercam I am trying my hand at Fusion 360. When I run this program it stops at line N20 G53 G0 Z0.and I can figure out why, Is it a problem with Fusion, my tool offset, machine off sets, axis settings, operator error, I don't know, attached is a screen shoot of AXIS GUI and a copy of the program, hoping someone out there smarter than me can point me in the right direction.

Your help is greatly appreciated,
Bruce

No error message, the program just hangs at line N20

So right after that is a tool change code - does tool changes work properly?
If you don't have a tool changer, then usually people set up a prompt to change the tool.

hal_manualtoolchange is the component and it needs it's HAL pins connected to work.

It isn't actually stopping at the G53 line, it is stopped waiting for the tool change on the next line. Your machine must not have tool changing configured correctly. If you'd load T1 manually from the MDI, I bet the file would run fine.

Your choices are remove the tool change commands from the G-code, or fix the tool change part of your Linuxcnc config, (by properly enabling manual tool changes, or ...)

If I MDI a tool change, T1 M6, I get the same results if I delete the tool change line it works successfully, I do not have a tool changer, Bridgeport style mill.
Where do I find hal_manualtoolchange and what do I change so I can do a manual tool change with multiple tools?

Thank you,
Bruce

hopefully this helps:
linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/man/man1/hal_manualtoolchange.1.html

I think all of the sample configs use it aside from qtvcp, so there are those examples too.

Added this to the end of the .hal file and all works well now.
