The recommended version of Fluidnc now is 3.9.9. I would update to that.

Try typing $X in the terminal window.

B-Stone · March 11, 2026, 9:19pm

thanks for the reply should i upgrade to the V4.0.1. showed it in the pic

jeyeager · March 11, 2026, 9:23pm

No, 4.0 is still stabilizing. Stick with 3.9.9. It lets you select the version to install.

B-Stone · March 11, 2026, 9:26pm

copy thanks. I need to find a data port mini usb. i think the one i have only does pwr. on the hunt threw the house.

B-Stone · March 11, 2026, 9:42pm
