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.
