Connecting to a Maker Dreams Evo-One CNC

Hi guys I am new here and have downloaded the GSender 1.1.7 for my elderly MacBook Pro. I used the propriety Code program from Maker Dreams with the same MacBook but after moving house and being ready to continue carving I found that the program would not connect properly. So after some searching I found your product. Whilst it says it is connected none of the controls work. It is connected vis a USB port exactly as it was before moving, so cannot understand why? Any ideas gratefully received.

All controls are grey and the status bar in the top middle states connecting and never changes.

@Marwal Welcome to the group, Martin.

Is there a reason why you installed 1.1.7? It is almost 4 years old and has been updated many times since it came out.

Hi.

Yes there is a good reason, the MacBook I have in the workshop is old and cannot run the latest version! Looking at the interface I really want to get this running as it looks great.

I have managed to get the wording from the connection - /dev/tty.usbserial-MDTT172 - with MDTT172 being the serial number.

Any ideas?
