  • Are you wondering how to run your CNC router from your smart phone. In this CNC router tutorial, you learn how to remotely control your CNC router with your mobile device (such as a smartphone or tablet or iPad) using G-sender! (G-Sender is properly denoted as gSender). In this video, we'll guide you through the process of setting up gSender, the latest control software for CNC routers, developed by Sienci Labs, the creators of the Longmill MK2 CNC router. By the end of this tutorial, you'll be able to control your CNC router effortlessly from any device, be it your cell phone or tablet.
    This will enable you to run your CNC router remotely when running your woodworking projects, setting up your zero positions and any other function you can do on your computer. Even better, you will no longer need a game controller to run your CNC router.
    gSender is an advanced control software that serves as the communication bridge between your mobile device and your main computer that is connected to gSender and your CNC router. By adopting gSender, you'll benefit from the most up-to-date features and functionalities available for running CNC routers.
    One of the key advantages of using gSender is the ability to set your XY zero points conveniently. We'll show you the step-by-step process to define precise zero points on your CNC router, ensuring accurate positioning and minimizing errors. Additionally, you'll explore a host of other functionalities that gSender offers, expanding the capabilities of your CNC router and enhancing your woodworking projects.

    Right agin Garrett, THIS IS TOO COOL. I set up phone & tablet. I built my CNC from scratch. GRBL based with an Arduino uno control board. Started with UGS and could not get it to “connect” to my machine. Tried OpenBuilds for awhile and it worked ok but I was never real comfortable with it. Stumbled onto gSender and haven’t looked back since. Love it. Easy first time set up. Dedicated surfacing page. Easy access to firmware settings. 3 axis touch plate capability. And, of course, as Garrett says, wireless mobile control. Thanks a million for all of your video.

      @IDCWoodcraft  Před 6 měsíci +1

    @pnlaw Před 11 měsíci

    😃 Garrett, I don't know why I keep having to rediscover your tutorials! Super clear and limited so there's not too much to absorb at once. I've sort of suffered through the morphing of gSender since 0.7x version, but it quickly became my standard sender from Carbide Motion through UGS and CNCjs. And NOW no more hardware remote devices! Now I have a path for remote/secure access to my workshop network. Thanks for this explanation of this process without my risking screwing it all up! 👍

    • @IDCWoodcraft
      @IDCWoodcraft  Před 11 měsíci

      pnlaw, welcome back brother! I'm glad the videos have been helpful for your so far. I get the frustrations with the gsender/UGS debacle. I'm glad it's been working smoothly for you now though my friend. Happy cutting!

  • @EdsCncAndLaser-ArtPlusSigns

    I'm so glad I found this video.

    I have been working for about 5 years with UGS and UGS does also have an option like this but… It was years ago since I have used gSender and it has really done a great job! Where UGS has kind of stayed the same, GSender has a lot more up-to-date functionality. I’ve looked at all the options, tested them and now I have made the switch to gSender. What a great program and very up-to-date and suitable for both the experienced use and the newbie in CNC land! Thanks!

    • @IDCWoodcraft
      @IDCWoodcraft  Před 3 měsíci +1

      krekel326, glad to hear you made the switch brother! Happy CNCing.

    @grampysfollies Před rokem +2

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have the Longmill MK2 30X30. I was trying to use an earlier method to add the remote function to my phone with zero luck. I just spent the last two hours loading the latest version of gSender and going htrough the process in this video. It didn't take two hours but once loaded I just had to play around for while. I am using a Galaxy A51 and it works fine. Again, thank you.

    • @IDCWoodcraft

    Liberty (and Garrett):
    I just received my order, and it made me so happy! The outside of the box said, "Lookee here, Thomas!" (my first name). The inside had lots of cool doo-dads: IDC stickers, little QR code scan thingies to order bits or learn more. I just want to say: You're doing it right. The personal touch really made me smile: free IDC pen and coffee mug? Cool stickers and cards? And you donate a portion of my order to charity on top of that??? Totally satisfied, and Liberty kicks butt! Can't remember a more satisfying purchase in ages. And holy cow! Can't wait to test out The Hog! Thanks!

    • @IDCWoodcraft
      @IDCWoodcraft  Před 11 měsíci

      Hey Thomas, Thanks for letting me know the bits arrived. You're so welcome for the extra goodies, I'm glad you enjoyed them. I feel a lot of business don't treat their customers a people anymore so I've always worked hard to make that one of my top priorities. Happy cutting my friend!

    I am so going to use this. I have been looking for a way to not have to run around with my keyboard. My solution is two wireless keyboards running on my pc. But I still need to run around zeroing and probing. This is going to save me so much running! Thanks Garry.

    • @IDCWoodcraft

    I agree, I have tried Candle & UGS but gSender is by far my favorite. It's reliable and very easy to use. This remote feature works alot like the Beagle Cam that I use for remote control of my 3D printer so this is right up my ally. I'm all over this like Glenn on a cupcake!!! lol

Having the ability to set up a job while standing in front of my machine will be not only convenient but will also be a time saver. Always great content Garrett! Keep up the great work you do! I, for one, really appreciate all the how-to videos. Without you and a couple others I would still be scratching my head and probably breaking bits.

    I used UGS for 2 years and was happy but I switched to Gsender 2 months ago and like it very much. I don’t use the phone/tablet feature, but the rest of the program is good for beginners or more advanced users. I run it on a raspberry pi 4 and it works fast and smooth.

    • @IDCWoodcraft

    @nevsmith2750 Před rokem

    Garrett, of course you can just use remote desktop software to control any CNC control software, not just gsender. I have been doing this ever since having the CNC. The advantage is you are interacting with the actual software and not running a second instance. I am not sure of the disadvantages. This also works for anyone who does not want to update to 1.2.# just yet.

    Thank you Garrett for all the great tutorials as they as so helpful. I’m thinking of buying an Altmill and I never used Gsender. I’d like to ask can you tell me if Gsender will run a ToolSetter? Same way as the Masso controller would or Carbide Motion. Thank you in advance

      @IDCWoodcraft  Před 10 dny

      Miter5TrimCarpentry, You're welcome! I'm glad you find the tutorials helpful. Gsender can work with a ToolSetter, but the exact setup process may vary compared to Masso or Carbide Motion. It's best to refer to the user manual or contact the manufacturer for specific instructions.

      @@IDCWoodcraft Thank you once again Garrett for the info. We just ordered our Altmill from Seinci Labs and I asked their tech team about a Tool Setter and they also said it can be set up, however, given their are not selling their own, they won’t recommend one to buy. Can you recommend a Tool Setter that we should consider?
      I would imagine that the tool setter has to be compatible with new SLB ports?

      It works for the grbl firmware which is used by a wide variety of CNC routers on the market like Shapeoko, OpenBuilds, XCarve, and many more - not just Sienci Labs machines. Mach 4 is actually a proprietary firmware so it's not very compatible with other software options

    I am using gender for the last year and it works fine since ugs is sometimes not very reliable I see a problem with the version to use the phone or tablet as control there are many ways do control the laptop or PC remotely. There are risks to walk away from the cnc router as if it's running I never do that there are enough things to do in the workshop a router is a very powerful tool it can get stuck on a piece because of incorrect feed speed and can take the piece and can create a dangerous situation including fire etc.

  • @TMihelich
    @TMihelich Před rokem +1

    The BIG issue with this is you have to start both of them up before you start running the job.
    If you start the job running on the main computer and once it is cutting a gcode you go and try to connect then with with a phone or tablet it halts the machine and resets it the job back to the starting point in the code.
    You just cannot connect another device once the main computer starts cutting.
    This is the major drawback I have come across with this thus far.

If you connect to a running session already in progress it will screw up your project. You could resume it but you better know what line you were one otherwise youll have to guess and... well.. it wont be perfect. Also... PLEASE level your flag sign above your CNC... my OCD is OCdone now. LOL Sorry
