Rapid Changer ATC

I have the 48x48 altmill with the super long board EXT. I am trying to get the ATC to work but having a problem. I set the atc up and download the Macro to the sd card and installed it in my SLB. when I type in the manual command M61Q1 Iget a OK on my gsender 1.5.5. When I type in G65P231 to check my bit I get a error of Error 39 Invalid ID: 39. and the cnc machine will not run. I have set my ATC setting 4 different tttimes and the same thing. I don’t know if gsender is reading the sd card. Any help on solving this problem.

Thanks

Tony

gSender has nothing to do with macro execution or SD card - that’s entirely handled on the firmware side.

You’ll likely need to contact the RapidChange folks with help diagnosing your problems.

Error 39 (value out of range) makes me think you have something misconfigured.

I’m certainly no expert on the RC ATC, but I ran into something similar in my setup.

I originally set it up on the Rapidchange Service page as Inches. As I was working through the profile setup I noticed that the default spacing between the pockets of the ATC was only 1.772 millimeters. Scrolling down, I noticed tha the center to center distance was also set to 1.772 - but in INCHES. I went back the the Dashboard tab and changed the setup to metric and it solved th problem.

You have to mount your SD card first . Type in the console $ FM .
