I will try again, I did assemble everything and looks great.
following steps in instructions, electronics, calibrate, drivers and now Machine Setup.

Please help or point me to correct thread.
I can’t find anything, but Mac problems.
I just connected my X-Carve to a PC last night and it was definitely more complicated than hooking it up to my Mac.
What I had to do was install the Arduino IDE which will install the appropriate drivers. I then went to my device manager and under Ports (COM & LPT) found what COM port my Arduino was on.
yes it was one of steps in instructions: Drivers
so I did Screenshot by Lightshot
and shut off antivirus and windows firewall,…
following instructions placing all needed info Screenshot by Lightshot and getting

when I look at power supply, on arduino housing, there is 3 green lights on and off with 5 sec period and 1 blue light is always on. Any ideas if i is how it should be? or what to do?

otherwise there is 3 steady green lights
tnow this makes me sad

Archil, what did you do to fix it? I’ve been having the same problem the past two days and can’t connect to easel.
Hola ArchilTophuridze, Tiene mucho suerte por conseguir. yo he parecido a ArchilTophuridze (COM3), No puedo conectar callallete a la maquina en la PC
Hola PeterJames y no puedo llamar por telefono porque yo vivo en españa y soy Sorda ( no oir) por eso necesito soporte 
Por favor ayudarmeeeeeee…
I was able to fix it with some help from customer support. I think the problem was two fold…my arduino and gshield were not seated properly because the enclosure opening wasn’t low enough, and second, my Firefox browser wouldn’t allow easel to connect to the machine.
just call them they will help or do the remote assistance. mainly you have to flash something
