Installed the new firmware and now after a cut the tch continues to go up all the way and hitting top. You cannot stop it. I have to unplug the usb cable to get it to stop. Suggestions?
Can you post your G code file here?

Your g-code is still incorrect for the last cut loop and explains why your torch was able to move after completing the cut. It is missing the above 3 lines which explains your torch movement up after the cut finished.
Why is the code missing? It isn’t something I can control on my end beside adding the code manually.
Mine is doing the same thing. You can hear the motor clicking over and over again. I have to close the software and cycle the power on the table controller.
@TNspeed It sounds like your g-code is also having issues. Can you post your code here? It is most likely missing the H0 code to turn the THC off.
That’s odd. I ran the same code four times and three out of the four times it worked fine. One of the four times I had the issue.
@krmnelson73 @TNspeed We think that we have found what might be causing this issue in Fusion. Try and regenerate your program but in the ‘Heights’ tab set your heights to match what I have in the image below (don’t worry these are ignored by the post processor and don’t account for anything meaningful). Next re-post your program and check the g-code. You should now see the H0, M5, and G0 Z1.0 rapid retract being added to the last loop. We are working to fix this in a post-processor update but for now please try this solution!

And if you use Sheetcam?

@krmnelson73 You will need to set your Job Options back to default as shown below. This should fix it!
Ok! Will have to give it a try.
Yes thank you for the quick response!
I’m not a Crossfire owner/user YET, but have been following along for quite awhile.
I am continually impressed with the response time from you guys at Langmuir. You guys really get it that solid customer support is key to your/our success.
It looks like less than a day for an answer, wow!
I really look forward to being able to place an order!!
Good Luck Everyone!!
