| ID | Error Code Name | Image | Error Location | Error Description | List Of Possible Solutions |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | (Feature {Feature Name}) | Image | Posting Toolpath | Current toolpath is not for 3-axis machine. Posting process exception. | The machine selected is a 3 axis machine: 1. Select a machine that can be used for all toolpaths in the job 2. If the machine is selected correctly, there is a feature that can not be used for a 3x machine. Recreate or delete that feature. 3. The Machine Origin is setup incorrectly. The Z-Axis should be facing upwards pointing towards you if looking from top of part prospective. |
| 2 | (Feature {Feature Name}) | Image | Posting Toolpath | Current toolpath is not for 4-axis machine. Posting process exception. | The machine selected is a 4 axis machine: 1. Select a machine that can be used for all toolpaths in the job. 2. If the machine is selected correctly, there is a feature that can not be used for a 4x machine. Try to Post Yes/No the feature and see if it posts. 3. If you have an index in the job, check to make sure they are all normal to the rotation axis. A surface could be selected for the index to is not normal to the rotation axis. Try reselecting index and using a UCS for the index instead. 4. Check Machine Setup and make sure it is setup correctly. |
| 3 | Error(s) occurred during the simulation run! Simulation will be stopped.: | Image | Loading Simulation | This move can't be interpolated, because it is ambiguous (180 degree orientation or roll change). Please pass it in smaller steps. | 1. Go back and re-evaluate toolpath creation. Adjust Tool Orientation. |

Check C++ 2015 & 2012 5. manually register swdocumentmgr.dll open CMD in admin mode regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Solidworks Shared\swdocumentmgr.dll" if swdocumentmgr.dll is not in the folder or above steps didn't work transfer both files "swdocumentmgr.dll" and "zlib.dll" and register the swdocumentmgr.dll 5. May be a bad model. Check the model to make sure there are no bad surfaces or save out as a STEP or IGES file |
||
| 11 | ( Feature Mill Hole - 0.5000-Mill Thread ) Passed points does not define an circle. | Image | Posting Toolpath | Passed points does not definean circle. | 1. Check to make sure the circular leads are not set to zero. It needs to be a non-zero value. |

Contour is not continuous._x000D_ _x000D_ Could not compute offset of given contour. Contour is not continuous. | Image | Simulation | Collision checking for object tool, which suffered an unsupported change, was disabled. Could not compute offset of given contour. Contour is not continuous. Could not compute offset of given contour. Contour is not continuous. | 1. Check tool geometry. Make sure it is fully connected if it is a custom made tool 2. This may be an issue with the tool geometry if it is a tool from Machining Cloud. Check with Development and / or Machining Cloud. |
