1. Connect to your 1F using ip adress or [http://onefinity.local](http://onefinity.local)
2. Click the upload button and navigate to the folder where you saved gcode.

Oh, I see… so you don’t really need to even FTP into the darn thing! I managed to FTP into the controller, and I was scratching my head which directory do I drop the code files into. So easy peasy.

Thanks so much. 🙂

If you absolutely want to upload from your cam software, instead of doing FTP to the folder /var/lib/bbctrl/upload , you can install samba and your pc will access the share. See

> Out of the box network share support for uploading gcode directly from prefered design software. Temporary solution note: This generage a share called ‘GCODE’ instead of ‘upload’ in order to not interfere with future 1F implementation. # SSH to your cnc using user and password. # usually user=bbmc password=onefinity sudo -i # enter same password ############ # MOUNT OS RW ############ sudo mount -o remount,rw /boot …
