Hello everyone,
My new custom cnc router is near completion but i am having a difficult time posting to centroid using different cutters? Our new machine has an ATC.
Vectric is giving me an error...
Anyone know why this may be? I'm submitting a trouble ticket to Vectric as well, but thought i would ask here while waiting to hear back from them. My tertiary search on the forum hasn't resulted in any answers, but i'll keep searching.
Thanks for any assistance.

1. Is the error "this tool is used by another toolpath with a different geometry"?

Re: Posting to CENTROID Acorn using an ATC
Have you set up the ATC on the Acorn and are you able to change tools using the M6 command in the MDI panel?
Have you modified the mfunc6.mac macro in CNC12 for the tool locations?
