XCarve hangs on writing machine configuration in Easel

X-Carve Troubleshooting
1

Hey all-

Just finished upgrading my Xcarve and to the latest iteration and added an XController. I updated my drivers, and actually made a couple of successful cuts to check my dimensions, but now I’m having connection issues. Easel sees my machine, but hangs on writing the configuration in the machine setup tab. If I try and connect via UGS, I can connect, but get a continuous string of IOException while sending status “null” errors. This occurred after I tried adjusting the steps per mm on my Y axis to dial in in. Tried swapping USB cables too.

Edit: I get an "error while processing result " error if I try and do a soft reset in UGS.

Thanks,

Jeff

Shouldn’t have had to.

When I tried to reconnect, it didn’t show up in the easel tab. The device still showed in the com port, so I tried going back through the machine setup. When I opened that back up, I discovered it no longer had my original configuration saved, so I tried it again. That’s when I discovered that it hung on writing the config. After the config had hung a while, I cancelled it. I got the green Carve but back, but get no response from the machine. Can’t even jog it

Tried rebooting the laptop it’s connected to also.

Healed. Flashed the Xcontroller via easel and it seems to have resolved it.
