Software notes This printer natively interfaces with the proprietary Halot Box software, developed by the manufacturer to offer a simplified workflow optimized for the machine's architecture. The system includes built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing print files to be sent directly via the local network or through the manufacturer's mobile app for remote control. Experienced users can still use major third-party slicing software, such as Lychee Slicer or Chitubox, exporting the files in the compatible format required by the machine. The printer's internal operating system is based on an ARM Cortex-A53 architecture, which easily handles complex files and ensures a fluid user interface through the generous color touchscreen. The operational management of the printer relies on a flexible software ecosystem compatible with the main file preparation programs available on the market. Users can utilize both the proprietary application developed by the manufacturer and widespread third-party solutions such as Chitubox or Lychee Slicer, benefiting from preconfigured profiles for optimizing exposure times. Network features allow file transfer and progress monitoring via Wi-Fi or local Ethernet connection. Although network-based remote capabilities are available, the device maintains complete operational independence from the cloud, allowing total workflow management in local mode to protect the confidentiality of technical data.
