Hi: Maby someone can help me sence tech support is closed at this time for the 4 th July. I have a brand new cw machine, done all the pre-inspections recommended per owner's man. Put my work board on a sled and put into machine, installed memory card, turned on machine and LED light came on with a lot of dark squares runing from left to right (2) lines. If i have read the man. correctly it should show main menu and the help I need is not in trouble shoot. Can anyone help thank you boogeral

Did you place the Memory Card in the PC and activate it, after you loaded the CD and did those steps?

Have you checked the contrast adjustment? It is the small dial at the bottom of the keypad...

Happy Carving,

Are the pattern probe and Pattern Editor software worth the money? I tried to convert a picture using the designer software and did not get a good result. I sure hope the $350 I am spending for the probe and Pattern Editor software gets it done.

Have they took care of some of the problems they had?

Thanks for the input.

Try Amazon if you haven't already purchased one. I got a good deal with accessories, within about a week. I've haven't set up yet, still working on the new shop, so I can't give you a review yet.
