| Software notes | The machine ships with Mach 3, the most widely used CNC control software for hobbyist and semi-professional Windows-based setups. The integrated DISP (Digital Index Signal Processor) handles G-code threading via a spindle index signal. Mach 3 is compatible with most standard CAM post-processors and does not require an internet connection to operate. | — |
