How to load your file

  1. Copy to a USB stick

    Use a FAT32 stick and keep the file in the root folder. Many Chinese controllers only read 8-character names.

  2. Check the extension

    Fangling expects .txt, Starfire .nc, START .cnc. Rename if your controller does not list the file.

  3. Set the origin

    Jog the torch to the bottom-left corner of the sheet and zero X and Y. Our programs start from that corner.

  4. Enter the kerf

    For G41/G42 posts, type the kerf width in the controller (about 1.5 mm at 45 A). Pre-compensated posts need nothing.
