Hi,
My set-up is:
BUT....
I'm having difficulty maintaining the USB connection. It (usually) holds during a run but ALWAYS drops when G-code Sender gets to the end of the file i.e. when it pops-up its jaunty message "Yea, all code sent."
At present this means I must close the sender, pull-out the USB plug ("bing bong") and re-insert it ("bing bong") to re-connect, then re-start the sender. And, of course, my working Zero positions get lost in the process.:wall:
If you use GRBL, how do you send your code?

My set-up is:
- Arduino, loaded with GRBL,
- driving two Pololu A4988
- to my X- and Y-steppers. (I don't have a working Z-axis.)
- then I send the xxx.NC file to the Arduino via
- G-code Sender and a USB-connection
