You need to modify the post processor to add the $32=1. Add a %wait after it became Shapeoko writes the $32 to memory and it can get hung or skip following commands without the %wait

Go add $32=0 and the wait to your other non-laser post processors too

Just anymore in the front of the post processor files or should they be at a specific place in the files?

I can't edit the post and I had an error in the default Shapeoko header of $32=1 ... that should be $32=0
