Why would SheetCam be adding M00 in my G-code

For some reason it seems SheetCam is adding two M00 codes in my G-code. When I run program the torch moves to start then freezes up at line 6 which shows M00 and I can not continue cut. I have to restart FireControl. I’m running latest version of FireControl 20.6 and the latest Post Processor V1.6. The trouble seems like it started after latest SheetCam update. I’ll try to attach copy of G-code in Notepad.

It looks like it’s adding M00 after every move.

Ok, I think I have the issue fixed, The drop down "use code snippet " menu at the bottom of the operation window somehow showed “table pause”. I’m still confused on why it makes FireControl freeze up because you should be able to use a M00 command, correct?

Technically, M0 is an unconditional PAUSE (where M1 is a ‘conditional’ Pause and will only pause when the mode is enabled) and should allow you to resume with a program Start button. That’s how Mach3 and most other controllers work. I don’t know about FireControl.
