    Hi guys, I've been having a lot of problems recently with every drawing made in Fusion 360. Even with imported DXF files. When post processing (using the latest version of OpenBuilds post processor), the error message " TOP HEIGHT MUST BE BELOW PLASMA PIERCE HEIGHT" always appears.
    No matter how many times I check the heights, settings, etc... every time I get that error message and I can't generate any correct G-code.
    I wait for your help!!

    Thanks!! precisely, in my last works I edited this height, thinking that value is related to entry distance on the "xy" plane and not on the height.
    Just another question, in all my works, always appears the message about the WCS...that said "invalid work coordinate system. Select WC 1..6 in setup post process tab. Selecting Default WCS1/g54"
    This is not a problem to run correctly the g-code in OB control, but the code is alwas generated with this message.
    Some recomendations?
    Thanks!

    That message is telling you that you didn't select a wcs and the post processor is selecting the first one (G54) for you. Either ignore it, or select a wcs in your cam setup settings.
