Hi Tim,

There doesn't appear to be any problem at all with your project setup. An error like this is typically one of 2 things - you didn't select the right post processor when you ran the Save Toolpaths tool; free electrons when the Basic Panel loaded the tap file (generated when you ran the Save Toolpaths tool). You may want to double check and try generating the tap file again and see if that clears it up. In the free electron case - power down the control box, close the Basic Panel, power on the control box, start the Basic Panel and load the tap file again.

Some other things that might contribute to this - but am speculating here -

1. During your setup of the new machine - did you run the firmware update and did it report success?

2. Did you download the latest post processors from the Next Wave Automation site, install those for use with VCarve, and are using them?
