grbl plotter esp websocketserver

[qulet]

*I added espwebsocketserver to my ESP8266 plotter. In the LaserGRBL software, I activate the LaserWebESP8266 port and enter in the address field:
ws: //192.168.0.134: 81 /
and I can transfer g-code files via WIFI.
Is it possible in GRBL-Plotter? Do I need to change the ESP8266 firmware?

I have

• Ethernet connection (only tested with ESP32 )
  Frequency for status polling will be reduced automatically to 0.5 Hz.
  

It's via TcpClient

No idea how to implement websocket... Sorry
I had a look into laserGRBL but it is a completely different architecture in the back, no chance to take over code.

Thank you for the quick reply. I will try to reprogram the ESP2866.

I reprogrammed ESP2866 to TELNET.
After typing ip 192.168.0135 port 23 when trying to connect, the GRBLPLOTTER program hangs.

The same iport address as entered in Laser GRBL. works well.


Do I have to change anything in the setup?

[svenhb]

Please try a reset or rst after connection:

After pressing Connect- I can't do anything because the program hangs ......

Did you wait the 20 sec. for further messsages?

Perhaps the logfile shows more infos (location can be found via the "About" menu item)

Not much information there...
No idea for the moment

This is a temporary solution to the problem. This is a virtual com port.
