    I have a new Ox with a TinyG, Im trying to learn and get configured. I have downloaded FTDI drivers and have issued some commands, like the ones suggested: g1 f400 50x. I have found that the steppers run to the end of the axes and Ive had to shorten the distance that I enter. That’s not the big problem. I have issued the commands on Cool Term, and I keep getting the message Serial Port Error….Access Denied. And my board is shut off. How do I correct that?

    What OS are you running on your PC?

    Typically, an Access Denied error message implies the resource is locked by another application, are your sure you don’t have two CoolTerms running?
    Also, if you are on Linux, you may need to change the permissions on the serial resource to allow user access, not just root.
