Troubleshooting the Dobby

Connecting the Dobby

A special cable is required to connect the dobby to your computer via USB.

Setup Instructions:

1. Connect the cable to both the dobby and your computer.

2. Turn on the dobby and allow it to fully boot up before launching the Dobby in TempoWeave.

3. In TempoWeave, click "Dobby Settings" on the left side of the screen to open configuration options.

🔌 Always confirm that the dobby is powered on and fully initialized before accessing the Dobby screen in the software.

Selecting the Correct Port

To connect TempoWeave to your dobby:

1. Click “Available Ports” to view the list of USB ports on your computer.

   • The correct port is usually COM3 or COM4, but it may vary.

2. After selecting a port, verify the connection:

   • Use "Set Pick" or press the green button in the Dobby Control screen.

   • If the dobby responds (e.g., an audible click), the connection is successful.
