Hello,
I have a Makeblock LaserBot.
My LaserBot works with mlaser. But I am searching better SW due to the many bugs/limitations.
I want to make a test if laserbot works with BCL before buying the license, is this possible ?
I have installed BCL but can not have any movement in my laserbot using BCL.
I installed BenCutLaser Version 3.2, and flashed the Marlin_110_RC8_FA_BL.hex firmware into Laserbot. (OK, no errors)
I have set next parameters:
COM Port - set COM5 - set MinMega2560
COM Port - 11520, no parity,, 1 stopbit, 8 databits, no handshake
Setup - Controller boards - set "MegaPi/LaserBot"
G-code Generation - settings - GCode parser: BCLVLM_Marlin
Laser Tool parameters - set "Normal laser operation"
I get no movement with next commands:
Laser Tool Parameters - click "Left/right test" -> no movement
click circle test -> no movement.
I get below startup messages when I connect, so connection is OK I think:
