Candle stop sending the GCode to CNC #647

LuizSilvasjc commented 3 weeks ago

Hi everyone,

I used FlatCAM to make a GCode of a PCB. Opened it on Candle, did the height map and sent it to the machine.

It all went well until it doesn´t. It just stopped in the midle of the job. I checked on the console and there wasn´t a error. Just the last line that was sent to CNC.

I tried running the GCode without the height map , but the result was the same.

Could it be that Candle can´t handle my GCode?

Candle version : 1.1.7 Gcode: 138KB / 6424 lines CNC is running on FluidNC

Candle Issue

Another possibility is buffer overflow. I checked it at the moment it stoped and it was 125/5/1 candle issue buffer

Hello, I would suggest to verify your GCode using corresponding check button at the left-bottom corner and then "Send". Candle should send all commands to CNC and get responses without actual tool movement.

To make sure there are no issues with GCode, I can also verify your GCode on my setup, if you share it here.

Thanks mar0x

I tried to run it on LaserGRBL and the result was the same. There at least, i confirmed that it was a buffer problem.

I solved it saving the gcode on CANDLE with the heightmap, sent it to my router CNC SD card and run directly from it.

Isn´t the most elegant solution, but works and got the job done!

Have you tried "Check" mode?
