Error on Resume Line # 815908

While I was trying to resume the finish cut on project the Xcarve-pro locked with spindle Z axis fully raised. I opened gCode window and saw an error soft limits reached. I turned off soft limits and problem re-occured with hard limits. In both cases gcode reported the following ( G0 G90 G21 Z57.40399999999996). The max height variation of this project is about 1.374 inches on Z axis.

Lines of gcode are 883,817. I checked the gcode file with an editor and could find no line with a “Z57” in it.

Perhaps a parsing error in the gSender code scan working towards the indicated restart point, (815908).

The gcode executes correctly if allowed to finish a complete carve without a pause.

I will submit gCode file if requested.

G0 is a rapid move

G90 sets that movement to absolute positioning

G21 sets the units to metric

So on resume, it looks like your spindle tries to move up from Z0 by 57.403xx mm

If it’s not in your g-code, maybe it’s hard-coded a part of the resume command?

You’d have to submit the file so we can take a closer look at what’s happening for you here or try to explain it.

One thing to make sure is that your safe height from Start from Line + the max height of the toolpath isn’t over your soft limits - since that would explain the number you’re seeing (max height + safe height set in Start from Line modal.

I did send the file. Hope you got it. I tried to resume with soft limits turned off. CNC Machine Z axis went upwards to hard stop switch and the gcode was the same. So, I started the job from the beginning and it fully completed with no errors.

The machine firmware is set to G20 Imperial, which I use. So I do not know where the G21 setting came from.

Sorry, sent it where? I don’t see it across the forum, Zendesk or the general company email? Are you able to attach a link directly here?
