i have installed the LEETArduinoPendant.dll &Solid.Arduino.dll library into the uccnc plugins folder. i build your schematic on a breadboard, but i dont think the plugin is communication with my arduino. the arduino is connected on COM4 i think this is what you have hardprogrammed. i looked a little inside your code and found the communication on COM4 but don't know if this is correct.

Hi, Did you install the standard firmata library on to your Arduino? Which Arduino version are you using?

Buurte commented 1 year ago

yes installed the standard firmata code, the version of the ide is 1.8.15. But with the newer software still the same. Don't know if its helpfull but i use the uccnc software version 1.2111

Hi, I have just wiped out everything on my dev PC and started from scratch. As a result, please see the updated README file on the repository.

Mainly this part:

4. UCCNC Setup

**PLEASE NOTE: When UCCNC and the plugin are up and running, Enable +5V signal to D2 pin is required to tell the plugin that the user wants to control the machine with the pendant. D13 Pin then will read +3.3V (connect that to a LED)

Closing the issue since with the updated information there shouldn't be issues running it
