| Software notes | Natively compatible with LightBurn and LaserGRBL for desktop control. It also features a proprietary mobile application via Wi-Fi connection for basic management and rapid file sending. | Machine control is primarily handled by the proprietary xTool Creative Space ecosystem, an intuitive application that enables native management of both laser sources and supports autofocus and camera-assisted positioning functions. For advanced users requiring more granular control over processing parameters and complex workflows, the unit offers compatibility with LightBurn. Integration with the latter requires a specific initial configuration for galvanometer systems, but it unlocks professional vector programming features, optimizing execution times across both Windows and macOS operating systems. |
