Creat Gerber file

john40131
john40131 over 7 years ago

Hi, I have Eagle 8.0.1 not used at all for creating Gerber files, but I am trying to get a board manufactured, when I use the CAM processor everything seems fine but when I click Process job I error pops up "No layer selected" if I click OK it seems to carry on and create gerber files but then when I view gerber files that I have sent to manufacturer, they throw up errors.

 

  • Attention please, the minimum drill size is out of our capability, your order may be canceled
  • Can not identify the drill count
  • Can not identify the board outline
  • CNC Function Keypad updated version 3.GTO(null): Non-gerber274X/excellon formats
  • CNC Function Keypad updated version 3.TXT(null): Non-gerber274X/excellon formats

OK the drill size maybe 0.6mm for Vias is a bit small can sort that one

The rest below show seem fine

 

  • CNC Function Keypad updated version 3.GTS(Top Soldermask):Generic Gerber file
  • CNC Function Keypad updated version 3.GTL(Top Layer):Generic Gerber file
  • CNC Function Keypad updated version 3.GBS(Bottom Soldermask):Generic Gerber file
  • CNC Function Keypad updated version 3.GBL(Bottom Layer):Generic Gerber file

 

In top copper I selected " Top, Pads and vias

In Bottom copper I selected " Bottom, Pads and Vias

No S Screen

Top Solder Mask " Pads and vias

Bottom Solder Mask "Pads and vias

Drill " Drills and Holes

 

Thought I selected Dimensions in top layer so that may be one problem 

 

Can anyone point me into what I did wrong

Many thanks   John

    John, Didi you run the excellon job to generate the drill information? I can't understand why the 'No Layer Selected' occurred, as it appears that you top/bottom copper has the proper selection. Gene

    John, I do not recognize the contents of the TXT file that you listed. Can you give me a little more information this file? Also on the excellon job, it is a CAM file that is run the same as the Geber_RS274X…

    Hi John, Usually you don't need to touch anything in any of the tabs in the CAM processor window, all you need to do from there is click File->Job->Open and open an existing job file with .cam suffix.…

    In Device in Cam Processor I have "Gerber_RS274X" selected for all tabs and File is TXT, do I need to change when selecting Drill file, I just followed Youtube info

     

    This is TXT File

    %FSLAX25Y25*%

    %IPPOS*%

    Looks more like a Gcode file

    John,

     

    I do not recognize the contents of the TXT file that you listed.  Can you give me a little more information this file?

     

    Also on the excellon job, it is a CAM file that is run the same as the Geber_RS274X file is run.  It produces the drill data.
