Fusion 360 shapeoko xl problems

Anonymous
Not applicable

The carving operation isn't obeying plunge rates, and has erratic glitches in height that do not show up in the simulation in fusion 360. I have tried several different operations, same problem. I have watched many Winston Moy and Lars Christiansen videos. The simulations in program check out, and everything looks good. 

carbide motion 3.0.368
build date 2017-10-20
I'm exporting from fusion 360 using carbide 3d format, could this be the problem?
Do I need updated hardware, firmware.... shapeoko is several years old and only recognizes 3.0.368
Tell me I'm not the only one with issues like this.

I'm sorry to hear about the issues you are having. 

It's not obeying plunge rates: Can you expand on that? Is it reading a feedrate and going at something entirely different?

Erratic glitches in heights? Is your machine losing it's position?
