Autoleveller

Hello. I use Autoleveler 0.8.6 on computer with Russian localization. CNC running MACH3. After a failed try to load in PCB milling Autoleveler obtained from machine RPF file, but ALWAYS get the error:

23:19:33 [INFO] Autoleveller-Application started
23:19:41 [WARN] AutolevellerGUI $-Please set a valid GCode file first

23:21:19 [ERROR] Probe-An error occured whilst reading from the RPF, see full log file for more details

Tried on different computers, the result is the same. Sorry of my English. Thanks.

Sorry for the late reply on this, I have been busy working on the new AL8 which you may or may not have seen.

Anyway, first I thought this may have been a problem with the tolerance setting (where X and Y axis read from the RPF can be slightly offset from the given value), as was reported by another user. But looking at the RPF you sent me this does not seem to be the case as there seems to be other problems with it and is why AL is having problems reading from it.

Each column represents the X, Y and Z axis of each probe point but there seems to be some issues with it. I have commented on some but not all of the lines in the RPF.

In summary, there seems to be some lines missing and have been replaced with duplicates of other lines, which is the reason AL shows errors.

Not sure why these logging issues appear in Mach 3, anyone got any ideas?

Thank you very much. I will look for the source of the problem in the Mach3. On the results reported in this forum thread. Regards. NacK.

P.S. It would be nice if the Autoleveler in such situations would generate more meaningful error message such as "RPF file data is corrupted (unreliable); line ####"
