Please see the EiBotBoard documentation for full details of the available commands. Remember that, although the primary means of controlling the AxiDraw is with Inkscape and the WaterColorBot extensions, it is quite possible to send commands directly to the EiBotBoard, since it appears as a serial port and any terminal emulator can be used. This page will give a brief overview of the software installation procedure - for more detailed information on the WCB extensions, and how to use them with Inkscape, please see EvilMadScientist's wiki pages on the WaterColorBot and Egg-Bot (the Egg-Bot extensions provide the basis for the WaterColorBot extensions so the information is relevant to both). Although the extensions were originally intended for the WaterColorBot (and therefore handle things like changing colours, washing brushes etc.), they have a 'pen only' mode which is ideal for the AxiDraw. The AxiDraw is controlled from within Inkscape by means of the standard WaterColorBot (WCB) extensions which were developed by EvilMadScientist.
