lasercut 5.3 - HELP

[p.ter]

Hi guys,
I need some help to set my laser cut machine.
I had to re-install the software and after that the Z movement from the machine is locked and the menu command is switched off

Could someone help me? thanks

maybe is important to know that the reason why I had to re-installed the software is that without apparently reasons or settings changes, the machine had problems to cut materials.

I solved the problem: I must to check a option on menu control, and restart the program.

thanks all... bye

Hi All
Lasercut comes with Chinese laser engraver machines, (like EXLAS from XYZ Tech.) it is very simple program looking like the very old coral draw. For me I use coral and Photoshop to do all our art work and then exporting it to lasercut to be prossesed,
The menu is very simple allow you to copy, mirror and create some basic objects, you can make layers of your artwork simply by changing its colors. And later you can assign deferent cutting or engraving jobs to each layer, and send the job to the laser engraver.

Pors.
•It is very easy to learn.
•2- it handle the laser machine nicely and you can move the head of your engraver anywhere.
•Very easy to handle the laser engraver. almost you can control everything regarding the machine from your PC .
•It will help you to save materials in copy your object exactly the size of your material.
•It will calculate how much time you need to cut or engrave before you start your job.

CONS
•it only engrave closed objects (victors).
•it only recognize 1 bit color of your bitmap.
•it has some bugs, sometimes if your artwork is big, it hang and tail you ((you don’t have a dongle)), so you have to shut down and restart.

Finally, it is simple program for laser and very easy to use.
I hope it is good information on the program.

sorry for my bad English, I am not going to say it again.
