Examples of Usage

GRBL CNC control software named Candle for windows supports serial ports only.
FluidNC , a CNC controller, can be connected via serial port, but also via wifi/telnet.
The following is an example of a setup in which CNC for wifi connection by FluidNC is controlled by a Candle.

1. Install virtual serial port com0com.
   
2. In setup of com0com, check enumulate baudrate and add one pair of virtual serial port, COM19 & COM20.
   
3. Download latest version of IvyTcp2Serial and extract.
   
4. Create shortcut file of IvyTcp2Serial.exe .
   
5. Right click chortcut file and open property.
   
6. Edit shortcut link IvyTcp2Serial.exe to IvyTcp2Serial.exe /server=192.168.100.101 /port=23 /comport=COM19 /baudrate=115200 /parity=none /stopbits=1. IP address and comport should be changed according to your environment.
   
7. Execute IvyTcp2Serial with serial, and connected to CNC/FluidNC via wifi/telnet.
   
8. Execute Candle with serial port like COM20, and you can control CNC/FluidNC via wifi.
