Mini pc and two Easels

I have the 4040pro running on my hp mini . I bought the 6060plus and it tells me i need to unplug the 4040 to be able to use the 6050. Is this correct? I hate to have to run another complete set up with monitor and keyboard.

Thanks
Danny

I’m just guessing here, but if you are running candle off of the factory controller, I know you have to disconnect the usb/computer to the offline usb controller. This is true on my3018.

Since GRBL sets up the settings for the specific machine, you are trying to connect a machine with different Grbl settings to it. I’m thinking you, at a minimum would have have to change those GRBL settings.

It might be just easier to get a refurbished laptop or something similar or use an offline controller to run the Gcode through an SDcard. That would allow you to use Easel on your most used machine with the HP, and save the Gcode through Easel to a memory stick/SD card.
