USB connection problems

I am having a problem that I thought you all might be able to help with.

I have a Queen Bee Pro that I bought from Bulkman a few years ago. I have been using CNCjs and it worked ok but with start and stops. I recently moved my shop and wanted to upgrade my CNC with a new computer and the Commander software. After I put my CNC back together The USB port on my CNC pro V5 is either not working or the computer is not recognizing it. I can get the machine working with the Wi-Fi connection using the WEBUI on the CNC pro V5. Is there a way to connect Commander without a USB connection. All your videos show USB first then switching to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. I will also reach out to Sparks Concepts to see if they have any incites.

After more research I found on Sparks-Concepts/xPro-v5 a Universal Widows Driver CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP Drivers. That fixed my problem.

Prematurely terminating job

I am new(ish) to Commander and Nighthawk having previously used several GRBL boards and UCCNC.


My primary jobs invlove milling titanium, which is a sod of a tghing to work with, particularly when using 1mm carbide bits.


My questions is;- how do I raise the spindle before aborting a job? As it is, if I hit "HOLD" I can't raise the spindle and if I hit "End Job" my expensive carbide bits grind to a stop on the workpiece.
