    I am using tgFX to send Gcode to the tinyG piloting my shapeoko
    I am printing the wiki “Hello Shapeoko” test, for now, I never made it perfectly, I always have something going wrong, mostly on the “h” part.

    http://www.shapeoko.com/wiki/images/7/77/Hello_World_ShapeOko.txt

    Here is a scan of few of my tries.

    And here is my tinyg config dump

    Can you paste in you’re config here? Its not loading. Also, what build number are you running on tgfx? It should be in the tgFX settings tab. My first test would be to see if the file ran with XON/XOFF enabled and using Coolterm to “send file”.

    If that looks messed up still. My guess is your config is running too fast. I would try to slow down your feedrates and try again. Again I can’t see your config so I dunno. Try that out and lets see what happens.

    Lastly tgFX is still quite beta. However if you think you have found a bug please open an issue on synthetos github page for tgfx.

    I am using the latest tgFX build (commit 548747a0a2) downloaded 2 days ago.
    I am going to try coolterm with xon/xoff to send the file and see, and then try with a lower feed rate.
    Thanks a lot for your help !

    Thanks a lot
