Hey Guys,
I am brand new to the CNC world and I have started tinkering with the Arduino Due with the Gshield in hopes to make the Tiny G2 CNC. I have also been trying to muddle through Chilipeppr. I followed John’s instructional video about flashing my Arduino through Chilipeppr - which I think saved me a ton of work. Feel free to tell me that I’m in over my head, but the TinyG just seemed so cool.
Here is my problem: I have my motors set up correctly, my Arduino and Gshield are powered and connected, and my JSON server recognizes my Tiny G - but it has only worked sporadically (usually late at night and only after a lengthy string of expletives). All of my widgets are still in the default settings.
The Gcode window on the left of my screen has the clock which states, “the indicator shows that we are being asked to pause the sending of commands to the CNC controller so we don’t overfill the buffer”. It also shows that steps 1-7 are queued but not completed.
I tried reading through other discussions on this page (IE John Butler’s post) but even after trying those things, I still cant get my machine to move. Suggestions?
