Problem with Home Position on Update

roughtrussell — Wed, 10 Apr 2019 13:44:16 GMT

Logged in this morning (4/10/2019 - 7:00:00 AM) to updated fusion 360. Posted a program on UMC-750 and instead of going to its safe home position for B moves, it appeared to go to the machine home position.

Did some investigating and in the post script on line 374 and 375, the position is still called out correctly (X -29. & Y -8.) but it is converting those #'s to metric. So the machine actually goes to X-1.1417 & Y-.315. These seem to be the only problem.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

Yes I am experiencing the same problem on our DMG DMU50. Only my Z axis is converting to metric. If I switch my settings in the model to metric, then my Z is correct, but X and Y are wrong. Very frustrating.

I fixed mine for the time being. I went into the actual post and searched
for the # that is being changed and I multiplied it by 25.4. So 29.0 was
being changed to 1.1417 so I went in and changed the 29 to 736.6 so it
converted it when posting to 29in. Kind of messed up work around but it is
working.

Using the Okuma post on my Genos 560 having the same issues. Spindle jerking up and down during tool changes and not clearing to top of travel correctly. My old posts went to Z400 and now its outputting 15.748.

Heads-up; An update JUST went live that should address this issue. Test carefully and let us know if it still persists.

Thanks for your patience!

I have logged out and back in several times, and also did shut down, and restart and not seeing any changes in code. I didn't get the green bar that says you are on latest update. Do I need to download something to get the update.

It "should" go through automatically. However, I'm not quite sure how Mac updates go out, assuming you are on a Mac...

No not a Mac, Windows system.

Still seeing the same problem. Have not seen the update fix this.

If you click on the "About" button (hidden under the "?" in the top right") what version are you on?

Are you using a modified post processor, or the built in generic post?

Re: Problem with Home Position on Update

2.0.5658

Re: Problem with Home Position on Update

seth.madore — Mon, 15 Apr 2019 15:31:46 GMT

You aren't updated, the current version is 2.0.5677. If it hasn't automatically updated by this point, I think your recourse will be to uninstall and reinstall Fusion.

is there a reason I wouldn't get the update?

Could you export and share your log files? That would/should give us the tools needed to answer that question

here is the log file, but I already uninstalled and reinstalled. It now is the latest update.

seth.madore — Mon, 15 Apr 2019 16:27:06 GMT

Are these files a "before" or "after" the update?

Re: Problem with Home Position on Update

ron — Mon, 15 Apr 2019 16:29:58 GMT

after, sorry I was trying to get it working so I did the reinstall like you suggested.

Was having same issue exactly on Haas UMC 750. Almost crashed machine because of this. It is now fixed as of today, checked with posting out a program. My fix was Find and Replace in the post to switch it back to X-29.0 and Y-9.0
