MKS Tinybee and Pendant?? #436

Closed lons81 closed 2 months ago

lons81 commented 5 months ago

Hi, The MKS Tinybee with GRBLhal is absolute fantastic... Now i try to use my ESP32 Pendant, but i didnt get it to work.

I think i need the Keypad plugin, but in Web Builder its not checkable. So how can i tell grblhal to use Uart2 for my pendant?

With FluidNc it worked great.

Thanks, Lons

Do you have a link to it? Or did you make it yourself?

First I have to make the port available, it is on my todo list for the ESP32 driver.

The keypad plugin can now be enabled in the Web Builder. I am not sure that solves the issue for you since grblHAL only allows input from one source at a time unlike FluidNC that AFAIKT allows input from multiple sources. FYI the keypad plugin uses the 0x8B character to take full control of the controller (by switching the input stream).
