With a new Longmill Mk 2.5 30x48 I’m able to connect seamlessly with gSender but get no connection in attempting to add the CNC to my Easel Pro account. I’ll ping Inventables but thought I’d try here to see if anyone has had the issue.

Easel doesn’t support grblHAL as a firmware so it will likely not work until Inventables choose to support it (IE until they’re using it on their machine offerings I wouldn’t expect support).

You should be able to export gcode from Easel to use in a grblHAL supporting sender (gSender, ioSender, bCNC, etc.)

Here’s a thread from 2023 including a response from Inventables that they do not support grblHAL.
