Jack Pot board question

Software / Firmware
1

I am wondering if there is a Fusion 360 post processor for the jack pot board. I had one for the mini rambo. Is that the one to use or is there a different one for Grbl

You might be better off looking for stuff related to FluidNC which is the software that runs on the Jackpot.

FluidNc is based of GrblEsp32 which was a fork of grbl. Marlin, fluidnc, mach3/4 linuxcnc and any others cnc firmware needs a post processor to translate what you are doing into something the machine can read (gcode), thats the post processor. FluidNc expects GRBL in this case but it can understand “others”

Hey, the linked post processor it says marlin in the title but tom is using that to generate gcode for his 6pack (wich is like the mother oh the jackpot, sort off) and that runs on fluidnc and according to the github page description it includes the GRBL pp. My understanding is that there is no FLUIDNC postp because there is no need

This is the latest one from flyfischer and it has worked great for me. Even though I’m running the education edition of Fusion, it’ll work with the hobbyist one too. I’m also using the jackpot board with fluidnc and fluid dial.
