Many thanks

Use a network connection.

bCNC connection ok but now I have no more data outputs with or without -s parameter, even in command line window.

Simulator is working, grbl is working and status line shows real state, everything seems good but no steps or blocks showing in terminal when machine is moving / gcode executed. I spent time to try all I can imagine, reinstall, recompil, change gcode, etc. etc.

Please help me

For step output you have to add the -r parameter:

Usage:
D:\grblHAL_sim.exe [options] [time_step] [block_file]
  Options:
    -r <report time>   : minimum time step for printing stepper values. Default=0=no print.
    -t <time factor>   : multiplier to realtime clock. Default=1.0; 0="as fast as possible"
    -g <response file> : file to report responses from grbl.  default = stdout
    -b <block file>    : file to report each block executed.  default = stdout
    -s <step file>     : file to report each step executed.  default = stderr
    -e <EEPROM file>   : file containing grblHAL settings.  default = EEPROM.DAT
    -p <port>          : port to open raw telnet communication.
    -c<comment_char>   : character to print before each line from grbl.  default = '#'
    -n                 : no comments before grbl response lines.
    -h                 : this help.

Block output does not work, seemingly because some injected code no longer behaves as before. I have patched the Web Builder for now so compiles with should that work now. I'll update the repo code later since I had to add a function to the grblHAL core to make it work again.
