Negative. 

Please share a program that you have successfully run on your machine and we can advise you more properly

Post processors are not interchangeable between software companies and do not give us any information we can extrapolate a program from.

The only thing we can use is an actual proven g-code program and work backwards from there.

I recently aquired the 40-915X, I was told Vcarve by Vectric works on it but I am really hoping to get Fusion 360 to generate a G-code this machine will run. Has anyone found a way to get this to work?

The OP never returned with the additional information required. We need to see proven (has been run with success) G-code. If you have any to share, that would be awesome and may provide us with the info needed. Attach it in a .zip file if you would 🙂

These codes were generated in Vectric, using the Post Processor listed under manufacturer "General"  (my machine manufacturer)

The .ZIP contains a text version as well as the file I run on my machine.

I am not 100% sure the Oliver Intelicarver is the correct program, this is just the only result I get when searching iCarver (my machine name)
