grbl plotter esp websocketserver #287

Open qulet opened 2 years ago

qulet commented 2 years ago

*I added espwebsocketserver to my ESP8266 plotter. In the LaserGRBL software, I activate the LaserWebESP8266 port and enter in the address field: ws: //192.168.0.134: 81 / and I can transfer g-code files via WIFI. Is it possible in GRBL-Plotter? Do I need to change the ESP8266 firmware?

svenhb commented 2 years ago

I have

It's via TcpClient

No idea how to implement websocket... Sorry I had a look into laserGRBL but it is a completely different architecture in the back, no chance to take over code.

Thank you for the quick reply. I will try to reprogram the ESP2866.

I reprogrammed ESP2866 to TELNET. After typing ip 192.168.0135 port 23 when trying to connect, the GRBLPLOTTER program hangs.

The same iport address as entered in Laser GRBL. works well. telnet_GRBLPlotter telnet_LaserGRBL Do I have to change anything in the setup?

Please try a reset or rst after connection: image

After pressing Connect- I can't do anything because the program hangs ......

Not much information there... No idea for the moment

qulet commented 2 years ago

This is a temporary solution to the problem. This is a virtual com port. idea: https://www.instructables.com/Wifi-Grbl-With-Universal-Gcode-Sender/ https://tibbo.com/support/downloads/tdst.html Works fine with GRBLPLOTTER :))
