CAM file layers not selected

Community PCB Design
1

I’m not sure when this started happening (ie after an Eagle update?), but recently went to run a CAM job using the Sparkfun CAM script: sfe-gerb724x.cam and when I open the job, all the various Gerber layer tabs will show up in the Eagle CAM dialog, but none of the PCB layers are selected regardless of any Gerber layer tab selected.

I re-downloaded the SFE CAM script, got out of Eagle, restarted Eagle, reloaded the CAM file and again no PCB layers within the Gerber tabs have been selected.

I’m running Eagle 5.11.0 on OS X, Standard Edition.

Wondering if anyone else has had this issue with Eagle/SFE CAM script and if so, what might be done about it?

The layers won’t be selected until you load your board file into the CAM program. Then you should have a list of all the layers in each section with the appropriate layers selected.

Yes, that was it. I was out of my routine and though I had my board open, I was launching CAM from the schematic side.

Thanks,
