    Default ATC problems

    In the midst of cutting a part the rear dust skirt gate caught a hold-down clamp and I broke the shaft on one of the pneumatic pistons.

    So, I'll have to order another one.

    In the mean time, how do I manually change my .sbp code to not look for the numbered tool?

    Or what's the easiest way?

    I've tried to go back into vcp, edit the toolpath to show tool as [0], but now when trying to start the part file, the ShopBot still wants to return to the ATC at the back of the table.

    I know it's something simple that I'm missing here...

    just change the post processor to one without the atc you would have to change the tool to 0 too

    I was able to fix the broken pneumatic piston, so I didn't have to bypass the ATC
    Thanks, though!

    thats the best solution if possible. myself I would keep screwing up because the rythem has not changed in a long time.
