Fabrikator 2 mini not connecting

My Fabrikator 2 mini wont connect. I see its com port (3) but the software wont connect. If I try opening it in repeater it connects just fine. Is there some thig other than Machine control panel for setting this up that Ive missed?

Update: unchecking wait or startup will allow the Fabrikator 2 mini to connect but it still wont work with the software. If I go to move the print head or bed it will only execute one command and then wont do anything.

Did you ever get it to work? I got one, and it s3d won't work with it, but repetier works fine.

I'd appreciate suggestions.

Re: Fabrikator 2 mini not connecting

Are you both unchecking wait for start up? Do you see anything at all in the Tools > Machine Control Panel > Communication log?
