No connections to FluidNC

Hi,
I try to connect to my FluidNC-ESP32 controller but it doesn’t work. With UGS everything works fine. I stop UGS and start MillMage checked IP and port settings, same as UGS. Can’t see a connection status or control the CNC.

Need help, please.

Welcome, and thanks for reaching out.

From our documentation about ‘Network Connection Port’ settings:

The Network Port setting is in the bottom right of the Device Settings window. The default setting is 23, but some devices use a different port. Try setting the port to 8080, and if it still doesn’t work, check your machine’s user manual for more information.

Once reviewed, please let us know how you progress, and we can go from there. :slight_smile:

FluidNC supports both TCP/Telnet connections via port 23 and WebSocket connections via port 80 (>= v4.0) and 81/82 (< v4.0). UGS supports connections via either TCP or WebSocket but I believe MillMage only supports the TCP connection. So, you would need to use port 23.

I was able to successfully connect MillMage to my FluidNC machine using port 23 but not 80/81/82.

These are the default ports anyway. They are configurable to use different port numbers.

It’s working now.
It wasn’t possible to add a IP to a existing device, but when I create a new device with network connections it works.
