I'm building a 3 xis mill based on UGS, Grbl, a Uno board, 3 TB6600, and 3 Powermax 2 Nema 23 motors.
I'm hooking up the motors individually to the board, and with a small sketch, testing them on the bench top.
Before my next step of trying out Grbl, I tried opening a file I have saved from about 15 yo, when I was running LinuxCnc (EMC2 then) and saved my Gcode via the Axis gui, as an *.ngc file.
UGC opens it, and displays something in the plot window(?), but informs me that the code is full of 'non valid Gcode commands'.
Am I faced with the inevitable labour of having to rewrite all my files from scratch ?
