I'm trying to setup the server on a Raspberry Pi to control a Mendel 90, but I can't seem to get the server to actually do anything with the printer. It will connect and claim that it is online, but no commands work (manually types or button driven, there is nothing visable in the Printer Log. All temperatures read 0, so I'm assuming that it really isn't connected correctly.
I've used the printer in Host 0.85b on a Windows box and most of the settings I'm using in the config are copied from there. I've set the baud rates everywhere including the Marlin firmware to 115200. Also I am able to easily connect and control the printer via pronsole without issue.
What am I missing here?

Have you set transfer protocol to ascii. My defaults are for Repetier-Firmware which works much better with binary protocol, but marlin does not understand that format.

Have you ried pressing the reset switch on the printer after connect? The server expects a "start" from the firmware at the start. It resets using DTR, but in case it fails it will never see the start response.

Currently no other solution. I need to add a method telling that auto reset does not work, so the server does not wait for ever. Hopefully in the next version.
