New computer and now i cant get fusion to post process!?

title says it all. fusion keeps giving me errors and telling me there is a problem with post processing. so then i go into it the machine part it says no post selected. i go to that and it wont pull up firecontrol like it did on my old pc what am i doing wrong here. had to get a new pc because my old one was too old and wouldnt update. keeps telling me invalid post process selection

any help would be great

thanks

Your verbiage is throwing me off.

Can you screenshot your issue(s)?

You don’t go into any “machine part” in Fusion at all for anything.

If you have a Post Processor error, you may simply need to download the file from Langmuir’s website and add it to Fusion.

After downloading, you add it by going to the Manufacture tab in Fusion, and go to Manage → Post Library. From there you import the file you downloaded and now you’ll have the correct Post Processor for Firecontrol.

“It won’t pull up Firecontrol” is used to describe possibly the error for the file type being created due to the incorrect post processor?

this is helpful i didnt think i had to add any machines either. just installed fusion on this pc and it wont let me do anything without having a machine selected for post processing. i put a random plasma table from their tool library and i can get it to at least generate g code now. havent tried it on my cf table yet. i will look into the langmuir add on. i dont remember having to do that on my old pc but that was several years ago so it is very possible. im not the smartest computer person ever. so please be patient with my ignorance

Download from their page -

And as I mentioned, go to Manufacture and go to your Post Library -

After which you’ll need to choose Local and then Import the file you just downloaded; it’ll appear and remain in the list below
