fusion360 to Linuxcnc CAM problem - multiple tools - manual changing

So I am trying to get Fusion 360 drawn piece to work on Linuxcnc and partially failing. The first run an adaptive clearing works fine. I then expect the spindle to wait for me to change the 3 flute roughing end mill to a ball nose for the second operation, this doesnt seem to occur. I have no idea what I am doing wrong.



The one of interest is setup3. setup3 is my second go setup 2 didnt work either just a bigger piece which took too long.

What info do you need to help me? the f3d file? ngc file?

Hi, You have both tools set to tool #1. Change your finishing tool to another number and you will be good to go. Cheers Matt

That's odd as I thought someone told me last time to make them all the same number. They were all #1 so I didnt change anything.



I will try your suggestion that tomorrow night, too late now.

Look OK?



thanks

Snoozer77 is correct, can't have all tools be #1 or T1

Also you will want to have your post processor insert a G64 P Q for each tool.

see v2.7 docs - G64

"G64 P Q"

no indication where or how to do that.

No problems, no idea why they all have the same number. I tried to increment them and nothing happened so did it manually.
