so I finished my lowrider a while back and have done several carves including making the strut plates. I had trouble at first with the jackpot coming programed as mpcnc rather than lowrider but after searching this forum I was able to get it straightened out. I just recently reassembled the lowrider with the new strut plates and all was well. At some point along my journey I deleted the file(s) for macros so I decided to update the operating system through fluidnc web installer in hopes that file would return. I inadvertently did a clean install rather than just an update. I now cant connect with my wireless pendant and can only connect with my laptop, when I try to home the machine the Z and Y min side move at different rates with the min side barely moving. I’ve tried reloading. I’m thinking the connection and min max travel rates are somehow related but I cannot seem to figure it out or find similar issues on the forum. Thanks for any help
It would be helpful if you posted the config.yaml file for your Jackpot controller.
please forgive my ignorance but I’m not sure how to post the config.yaml file. when I click on it, it wants to download it. I don’t seem to have anything to open it. Again, sorry for my ignorance

is there a different file I should’ve posted. I’m lost as far as where to go and what to try next. Aside from adding a fan and installing the gantry struts, I haven’t changed anything. I used the fluidnc web installer to install v4.0.1 and uploaded the config.yaml, favicon, index and preferences files from V1EngineeringInc/FluidNC_Configs on git hub. The z and y min steppers move extremely slow compared to the max steppers and don’t travel as far either. when I try to home the z axis or the y axis, the max side reaches the limit switch and stops, the min side doesn’t reach the switch and i get a “homing fail, could not reach limit switch within search distance” alarm. everything was working great until I tried to re install fluidnc. Thanks again for any help, I’m hoping someone has an idea what to do and/or try to get this thing running again.
You should install v3.9.9. We’re still waiting for v4.0 to stabilize.
ok, i’ll go back to that. I tried v3.9.9 earlier with the same results. I’ll report back
Thanks!
That’s the wrong config.yaml. You have a Jackpot v1 and that’s the config for a Jackpot v3.
This is because FluidNC v3.9 uses ports 81 and 82 for the Websocket connection while v4.0 uses port 80.
going back to v3.9.9 fixed the connection issue. I switched z0 and z1 and the issue is swapped but the same. same with y1 and y0. I thought this was jackpot v3. I’ll try the v1 and see what it does.
you’re the man! I feel dumb thinking my board was a v3. making those changes fixed everything! now onto projects! thank you, thank you, thank you!!
