Software notes The software ecosystem relies on the proprietary HALOT BOX application, developed to optimize model layout and automatic support generation. The user interface simplifies the processing of complex files and supports network connectivity via Ethernet cable or Wi-Fi, enabling remote monitoring and machine control. In addition to the official software, the printer guarantees native compatibility with widely used third-party slicers such as CHITUBOX and Lychee Slicer, giving advanced users the necessary flexibility to customize exposure parameters and printing profiles for specialty resins. The device supports major third-party slicing software widely utilized in the industry, such as ChiTuBox and Voxeldance Tango, providing users with extensive flexibility during file preparation. Through these programs, exposure parameters, support generation, and lifting speeds can be granularly managed, optimizing the printing process based on the specific resins deployed. Processed files are transferred to the machine primarily via the USB interface located on the chassis side, ensuring standalone operation independent of a computer and removing the need for a constant network connection. The absence of a native Wi-Fi module or dedicated cloud integration excludes remote management or camera monitoring, focusing the user experience on a stable, local, and time-tested workflow.
