    After struggling for a few hours trying to get the whole setup done, I have one important question. Does the interface need to be unplugged when configuring, using the computer?
    Thanks,
    Joe

    No, USB takes preference. Unplug USB to switch to Interface as described on the Connecting Interface to BlackBox page of docs.openbuilds.com/interface

    With what exactly?

    Normally:
    Option 1: plug BlackBox into PC, run OpenBuilds-CONTROL, connect, Grbl Settings Tab, select profile or scroll down and enter parameters if its a custom machine, Save and Done :)
    Option 2: Interface > Tools and Utils > Load or Edit Grbl Profile > Done

    Having the interface and USB both plugged in was the problem.
