What happened

Trying to use UGS on a MacBook Pro / Ventura 12.7.3 with a CNC that works with cncjs ...

On connecting, I see a modal dialogue box stating: "There was a problem setting one or more controller features"

Here's a screenshot:

There are no messages in the console window.

The message log shows something interesting - an exception is thrown after the fourth connection attempt:

Any ideas as to how to fix?

How to reproduce

This happens each time a connection is made after loading UGS.

Operating System

MACOS Ventura 12.7.3

Anything else

No response

I suspect that you have turned off status reporting which is causing this error message. I will probably remove that option in the future since status reporting is required for the communication to work nowdays.

Same issue as #2453, fixed in #2454 which is available in the nightly build and in the next release 2.1.6.

Thanks - that was indeed the issue!
