I have been using Astroprint for a few years now and love it. It has worked fine with my Robo and anet A6’s. I just bought a tronxy XY-2, because, you know, why not!? I can’t get it to work with Astroprint at all. I have tried all baud rates and none of them will connect. I put octoprint in my pi and it connects and runs fine. I really don’t want to use octoprint. Please, somebody help me! Thanks
It should be compatible. Perhaps enable serial logs, try connecting using a few baud rates and send logs to us so we can see what might be going on.
I have tried all baud rates. I sent the data.
I don’t know if this will help, but the octoprint connects fine at 115200. I have copy and pasted the script from it.
Thanks again.

Well…I don’t know why it works this time, but after shutting down and retrying multiple times, it is connecting now. Go figure. Thanks!

I’ve experience the same issue with a Ultimaker 2+. After initial setup of the Astrobox, no matter what baud rate I set to connect it will fail.
I restart the Raspberry Pi and turn the printer off and then on and it starts to connect at the correct baud rate and then never has any further connection issues.
I was having problems with it disconnecting. It even stopped mid print a few times. Besides that, it was a horrible printer anyway. I fixed the issue by sending it back and getting an ender 3. It works great so far.
