UGS connects to serial port, reads status, then disconnects #2309
Comments
As of UGS 2.0.17 the protocol detection was changed from reading the welcome string Unfortunatley the specification for describing the version in the
Many vendors has come up with very creative version variants, but we seem to be able to handle them all by now: But it appears that a vise developer at Vigotec decided that it was a good idea to scrap the version string all together. You could try and execute the following command |
@breiler OK, thank you, that seems to work. I remember reading something about empty version numbers but I did not know that GRBL would allow the user to change it. Though it would be a good idea to handle all cases rather than crash/hang the software just because of some external input (this is how exploits are born; imagine a "harmless" gcode file infecting your machine with malware). |

What happened
I'm having a problem with a VigoTec controller using UGS 2.0.20 (the "all-in-one-Java-ball") and the latest UGS SNAPSHOT also have the problem (shown below). My previous version was UGS 2.0.14 and it does work without this issue.
It connects and gets the status then immediatlly "disconnects" but it's not really disconnected because it's still polling the controller. Reconnecting doesn't work because "busy" (obviously it's busy because UGS itself already has the serial port open).
Here is the Console log:
The

How to reproduce

Operating System
Arch Linux latest
Anything else
No other applications have the serial port open.
That's after connecting in UGS but the GUI shows DISCONNECTED and I can't do anything.
