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 system integrates seamlessly with the leading third-party slicing software available on the market, offering substantial operational flexibility. Users can utilize popular solutions such as ChiTuBox and Lychee Slicer, which feature pre-configured and optimized profiles for this specific model, simplifying file preparation and advanced support management. Connectivity occurs primarily via a USB port for offline file transfer, ensuring total stability during the printing process without the risk of interruptions caused by network fluctuations. Exposure parameters are fully customizable directly within the software, allowing for precise optimization across a wide range of both proprietary and third-party resins.
