UGS opening file issue
This is probably caused by a cache bug (https://github.com/winder/Universal-G-Code-Sender/issues/2332). You can try and delete C:\Users\\AppData\Local\ugsplatform\Cache\

Can I connect my laptop to my desktop CNC with a bluetooth usb dongle?
Get a raspberry pi, https://www.raspberrypi.org/, throw UGS https://winder.github.io/ugs_website/ or cnc.js https://cnc.js.org/ on it.

Cannot figure out why Universal GCode Sender won't connect to my Arduino Mega 2560. Any idea what's wrong?? Details in comments
UGS platform 2.0.11

Potreste aiutarmi a capire il modello di questa macchina ad incisione? (non รจ laser)
Scarica un programma per comunicare con grbl, come per esempio Universal Gcode Sender: https://github.com/winder/Universal-G-Code-Sender

Problems with UGS and grbl 1.1. It is constantly spamming this, I can't do anything without it starting again. Have restarted and reset everything, I'm at a loss. Appreciate any help
In that case I'm interested in your log files. I would appreciate a bug report so that I can investigate this further: https://github.com/winder/Universal-G-Code-Sender/issues/new/choose

What software are you using with your Inventables Carvey?
I was looking at other options and since I've used UGS on another machine I researched it a bit and found mentions of Carvey using a custom grbl implementation called gcarvin and while it's mentioned that support was added to UGS through the controller list, it doesn't show up and I haven't been able to find any more info.

No serial port found - CNC machine - Universal G Code Sender
As software i use Universal G Code Sender https://github.com/winder/Universal-G-Code-Sender/releases/download/nightly/UniversalGcodeSender.zip

Has anyone ever used a stepper motor as their spindle? (GRBL question)
It looks like UGS supports multiple axes if your controller does. https://github.com/winder/Universal-G-Code-Sender/issues/1068

GRBL Error 33 from Arduino Sender, but not from UGS
UGS does indeed have an arc to segment converter: https://github.com/winder/Universal-G-Code-Sender/blob/master/ugs-core/src/com/willwinder/universalgcodesender/gcode/processors/ArcExpander.java

Help
I believe the Tool Change command is supported by: gSender or cncjs.

Cnc Grbl Cant get Hard limits to work
Like /u/pemanja93 said below: gSender (Win, Mac, Linux)
- Alternative for Carbide Motion?
-
Having some probing issues
btw, unless you need height map probing, check out gSender.
- Question 2: how do tool changes work in GRBL
-
X-carve without easel
I use Fusion 360 for modeling and creating the tool paths, and export the gcode to a folder on my NAS. Then I use a raspberry pi running gsender to send the gcode to the x-carve.
- What's the best Gcode sender out there?
-
How do you generate your simple tool paths?
G-sender is super lightweight and has this built right into it. https://sienci.com/gsender/
