| Software notes | The machine includes neither a controller nor software: the choice of control ecosystem is entirely up to the user. Proxxon sells the complete CNC kit separately (NO 24 500), which includes a proprietary Windows-compatible control unit via RS-232/USB. Alternatively, the machine is compatible with third-party controllers that handle stepper motors through a standard interface; the axis connections are factory-prepared. Open-source software such as Mach3, LinuxCNC or equivalent solutions has been used successfully by community members, but these are not officially supported configurations by Proxxon. | The machine ships without axis motors, control electronics or software; the user is responsible for completing the drive system. The pre-installed NEMA 23 mounts are compatible with the main open-source and commercial CNC controllers, including LinuxCNC and Mach3. No cloud connectivity or subscription is required at any stage of operation. |
