I am using LaserWeb3 on a Raspberry Pi directly connected to an ATMEGA328.

On startup LaserWeb3 does not pickup that its GRBL because the RPI serial port does not restart the 328 like on a USB Arduino when connecting.

Is there a way that I can sent a Ctrl-X to the 328 to restart GRBL for LW3 to pick it up?

Or is there a way that I can tell LW3 that it will always be GRBL connecting?

Just click the "abort job" button to send a ctrl-x (when connected).

I could probably do an auto ctrl-x after connect, but I need to test if that causes any issue with other firmwares.
