Connecting MacBook Pro 2010 to X-Carve #35

Closed millerama closed 8 years ago

millerama commented 8 years ago

I am getting an error when trying to connect: Chrome did not use requested serial connection option. [ctsFlowControl; expected:false, actual:true]

Any advice on how to set ctsFlowControl to false?

Thanks, Rick (noob)

What version of chrome are you running? This is listed at chrome://chrome/

The bad news is that there is really not much that can be done in this case. The system is ignoring a parameter which may well be necessary for communication to be established properly. I know I have this issue on my 2006 mac mini, but have successfully controlled a shapeoko 2 (older version of an x-carve) from a 2009 macbook.

Any fix? I'm having same issue?

Version 49.0.2623.87 (64-bit)

As I said before, there is really not much I can do. It appears that there are some combinations of computers, operating system, and chrome versions where the Serial API of chrome does not do what is requested.
