Complete NOOB

Hey Guys, I just put together a CNC Router at home. I am having a heck of a time on the CAM side.

I have experience with Solidworks, Inventor, and a CNC plasma table.  And some experience machining. 

However, I am still a bit lost.  I am hoping you guys can help!

I guess for starters I have 2 questions. The people I got the router from as a kit, gave me a one year fusion 360 subscription. 1-How do I even know if it is activated?

2-In Fusion I was able to get the tool path created, however it will not post process a g-code.  Help with this would be much appreciated!

Thank you!

For starters:

If you are a hobbyist or start-up company making less than $100k, you qualify for the free license to Fusion Ultimate. So, even if they gave you a real account, I encourage you to register and start one up on your own. CLICK HERE

Second; What is the control software of the router? This answer matters

I activated my software w/help from autodesk live chat. Fusion still won't export the g-code though.

It's a Cnc router parts router. The controller is a CRP800-00E-8
