| Software notes | Based on the open GRBL protocol, it is fully compatible with major CAD/CAM software on the market, such as Easel, Fusion 360, and Carveco Maker. For g-code senders, Universal Gcode Sender (UGS) or Candle can be used. Should you choose to add the laser module, it is also supported for use with LightBurn and LaserGRBL. | The controller is GRBL 1.1h, an open protocol. Compatible software includes Candle, Carveco Maker, Easel and UGS. Wireless control through the Genmitsu app requires the U232 Wi-Fi module, purchased separately. |
