G-Code2GRBL
This App provides the interface between a tablet (10” preferred) and a GRBL CNC machine. The connection is using Bluetooth. The preferred receiver is a Bluetooth device called HC-06. More details about the connection is shown on the Help-Tab „Hardware Prerequisites” inside the App.
You can use raw G-Code commands as well as predefined buttons to control your CNC device. But the main feature is sending G-Code files to the GRBL controller.
GRBL Versions 0.9 and 1.1 are supported.
Some Features are:
- Buttons to move all Axis and setup zero positions etc.

- M06 Tool Change adapted to GRBL's M00 Pause command
