I was able to and update my new Jackpot board to my computer. I was then able to connect my android tablet to the Jackpot AP. I have not connected the HW yet as I want to get everything configured right so I can swap over quickly.
Remedial question here: What is the workflow to run a file on the Jackpot in AP mode?
My current frame of reference: I have an MPCNC with a SKR board and TFT. I write to an SD card, transfer to card to the SKR and “print”. I also have an Ender 3 with a Duet Wifi board. This connects to my wifi network (STA mode?) and I can run the printer gui by typing in the IP address in my browser from which I can upload and print files and control the printer.
From what I can gather from the original Jackpot thread and this thread, you should use AP mode for now because of issues with STA mode. I am using a Windows computer to create the grbl file using ESTLCAM or Vcarve. I plan to use a tablet to connect to the Jackpot and control my MPCNC. Once I connect the tablet to the Jackpot, I am no longer connected to my wifi network and cannot access the grbl file I created on my computer. Does this mean that I need to add a separate step to either connect my computer to the Jackpot to transfer the file or transfer the file to the tablet (while the tablet is connected to my wifi network) or save to the SD and manually move the card? I was hoping to directly transfer the file from my computer without switching wifi networks. Is this possible in AP mode?
