Error code. No program speed found

Cannot load file into firecontrol. Get “no program speed found”. Using sheetcam. I’ve read multiple forums and watched videos. Still can’t seem to figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.

Welcome to the forum.

If you post the gcode file, we could look at it and see if anything stands out.

  1. Often this error means that the cut file lacks any actual cutting instructions such as there were no contours picked during the CAM operation or the CAM operation was not completed.
  2. FireControl may need to be re-installed
  3. The post processing file used was not the correct one. The first line of the gcode would confirm that.

Most of the time this error means that you did not create a Jet Cutting operation before hitting the post process button. Sheetcam will not warn you that you missed a step in the process. It will just ouput a .tap file with a few of the basics commands inserted by the post processor, but no motion commands or program speed.

Ended up uninstalling and reinstalling sheetcam and firecontrol. All seems to be working now.
