    I would like to communcate with the BlackBox Motion Controller directly via USB from my own software. Is there any documentation on how to do this (port settings, commands etc.)?
    If no, does anyone have experience with this?

    Protocol is entirely documented on the Grbl Wiki: gnea/grbl

    Thank you for this input. Now it is working. The important point in my case was to disable the interface echo messages using the command stty -echo
    Before I did this I received a lot of error messages error:9
