F in Gcode still Ignored after settings change in Controller

[jasonb]

Hi there,
I just recently pickup up the AR8 Pro V5 and have experimented with programming toolpaths in Fusion 360, using both the Rs274d Post and the Richauto Post on Autodesks website. I have yet to try the Carbide3d post but doubt it will fix my issue. 

I have adjusted the settings in the richauto b18 controller to read F instead of ignore it, yet the machine still does not read F or change speeds while operating. The machine is moving so slowly that what should take 7 mins to complete is looking more like 3 hours. 

Heres an example of the file sent through Autodesks Richauto Post. The machine did everything in the file correctly except feed rate. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

It would appear that your file may be setup in inches...or at the very least, that the feed-rate is in inches.

With most CAM software, you can design in inches in preferred...but the tool-paths and gcode will need to be output in metric for the controller to properly read them.

So if the post sets gcode at f200, the controller is reading that at 200mm per minutes instead of 200 inches per minute? got it. thank you!

Had the same problem with RichAuto B11 controller and RS-274D PP from Fusion 360.  Needed to change units to "Millimeters" instead of the default "Document Unit".  Never tried the Autodesk RichAuto Post.

Note: All controllers do not read all possible G-Codes...each controller, no matter what machine, is set to read only the code set by the manufacture...
