Connection Failed or Invalid Firmware #195

Open

Description

@markplow

Trying to get webcontrol set up for the first time. It seems to connect (shows COM3 in upper right corner) and motors hum on my M2. However it is giving the error "connection failed or invalid firmware" I have updated the arduino due to the latest firmware from the makermade site but the error remains. See attached screen shots. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Mark

    Webcontrol only works with the mega processor controllers. The M2 is a Due processor and only works with makerverse.

    There is a no login workaround for makerverse:

    Edit your .makerverse file and add the line below after the first open brace ({) so it looks like this:
    {
    "InsecureDangerousGuestAccess":true,

    This issue is related to incompatible hardware, not webcontrol. A workaround was offered.

    I don't really get why makerverse requires a login...it seems like a mistake that makerverse was designed like that...but it's not really a WebControl issue :/
