Need help tried getting picsender to work for jtech and lost easel

I just tested your gcode file with PicSender & Larry’s MultiMode grbl 1.0c also and it runs fine.

I suspect the issue your having with connecting to Easel is, your grbl settings are not set correctly for it. With two LaserMode versions of grbl, PicSender changes the grbl settings automatically based on which Mode (Spindle or Laser) you have selected, but it needs to be setup properly.

Without knowing what version of grbl your using, it’s hard to help you get this resolved.

If you do not have Larry’s grbl flashed to your controller, I suggest you do so. The hex download is here:

There are setup instructions for PicSender & the grbl settings here:

Xcarve_JTech_grbl (usage notes)

For those of you that use multiple programs to send your g-code to the X-carve remember that the grbl settings are persistent even through a power off cycle. Be careful to make sure that you have the correct parameters loaded into grbl when you start a laser or spindle job. If you use PicSender exclusively, all you need to do is to select the applicable mode and PicSender will take care of loading the proper grbl parameters for that job. If you leave PicSender to use an alternate method of send…

The two grbl setting text files are in C:\ProgramData\PicGRBL for manually editing them in a text editor like Notepad.
