Periodic errors during file streaming #14

Open newsch opened 5 years ago

newsch commented 5 years ago

Every now and then while streaming a file through CNC.js GRBL will return an error, related to the gcode sent. Sending the same command will then receive an ok. The last time this happened I tried sending different permutations of the command with a character missing, and was able to get similar results (I copied that below). Based on this, I think characters are getting dropped, presumably over serial?

Note that this is different from #15 - the arduino remains connected and can be resumed with ~.

Some potential fixes:
