Troubleshooting:

• Nothing happens when you try to cut:

  • Is the ECU on?

  • Pull out the Emergency Stop Button and Align the Head again.

  • Are you out of Corners? Check the License Screen.

  • Has the Product Key timed out? Check the License Screen.

  • Check the ECU connections into the back of the Control Panel, Gantry and the Computer and make sure they are plugged in tight.

  • Is the design too big to cut? Rotate the design.

  • Turn off the ECU and close the software. Turn on the ECU and restart the software.

  • For the Z Series, see if the Cut Preview is indicating that some of the Finger Clamps need to be rotated before it will cut.
