| Software notes | The device is compatible with major slicing software options on the market, including the proprietary Creality HALOT BOX suite, CHITUBOX, and Lychee Slicer. File preparation is primarily handled via a local computer for export to a USB flash drive. The integrated wireless connectivity allows for basic remote management and monitoring through the Creality Cloud application, yet the machine remains fully operational offline using the built-in touch screen interface, ensuring flexibility even without internet access. | The system utilizes an open software ecosystem, ensuring compatibility with the main slicing programs on the market, including ChituBox and Voxeldance Tango. The machine integrates built-in Wi-Fi connectivity for the remote transfer of print files via the official application or compatible software, eliminating the need to use physical USB drives for every operation. The internal firmware is based on an optimized version of Linux, which improves the responsiveness of the user interface on the built-in touch screen display and optimizes the handling of complex data originating from 9K files. Exposure parameters and resin profiles can be managed directly from the chosen software, offering precise control over curing times and axis movement speeds. |
