So I wanted to try out laserweb 1 on my k40 setup. I am running a lasersaur compatible board right now on an ubuntu system. I have laserweb installed and the server is running successfully. However, I am unable to connect to my k40. With my current setup I know that it is connecting through ttyusb0, but laserweb does not find anything on any port. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Brandon.
Do you have spjs installed? I don’t see that mentioned
LaserWeb V1 is at End of Life status. There is no ongoing development or support. LaserWeb V2 is the current and supported software.
O shoot. It says LW1.
I thought someone mentioned I couldn’t use lw2 with my setup. Does that mean no one can answer questions?
Your board type is not supported in LW2. But you say you have installed and opened LW1 on the browser?
I printed these instructions up below and followed them to the T. Is there something that I am missing? I also edited the config file as instructed.
Ubuntu

Go to the directory you would like to install LaserWeb in by entering cd Desktop for example
Enter git clone https://github.com/openhardwarecoza/LaserWeb.git then cd LaserWeb
Next install the npm modules by entering the following npm install
Finally enter nodejs server.js
Hi Peter. I will check that out. Thanks!
I just wanted to say thank you. I actually decided to blow away the ubuntu setup and install windows. I got LW1 up and running successfully. Is there a full writeup on all of the features available that I can look through?
