The easel cant recognize my X-Carve

X-Carve Troubleshooting
1

Hi!
I was just using my X-carve to carve something and suddenly it stop carving along the way. Easel was pointing that it cant recognize the machine and want me to specificly point the USB port where i plug cable, thus after doing that the Easel still cant recognize my machine. pls help me :slight_smile:

and the other thing is can somebody point me the gshield wiring picture or instruction, the instruction on the inventables website was different with the one i use when i assemble this machine, im still using the arduino uno gshield. i want to make sure that my wiring was in correct order.

Regards

Make sure your emergency stop isn’t activated. It will stop the USB from being recognized.

First reboot the system.
If that still does not work then you need to reinstall the driver.
I have had an issue where easel would not see mine and I had to reinstall the driver.
Tech support is very good at helping you with that.

i already try to reboot the system and nothing came out good for me, thus it still not recognize until now.
For the driver ill try to reinstall it and give u heads up about what happen afterward.
and for the Tech Support, did u mean the inventables tech support team or what? i dont really get what you mean.

Therefore thanks for helping me :slight_smile:

I’ve been having the same problem. I ruled out grounding problems and the USB connectors. What I did discover is that I only have trouble connecting with Easel after using Universal G Code Sender. UGS always connects with no problem, but if I close UGS and try to connect with Easel, no dice. I can hear the steppers lock, but the carve button stays blue instead of turning green to show it’s connected. The only fix that works is to reinstall the driver. Unfortunately, I have to do this after each time I run UGS.
