Hello everyone!
About a month ago, I purchased an inexpensive K40 type machine from eBay with the intent to upgrade the electronics. It's no where near started, but I had a question before I began hooking everything up.
I also purchased a new AWC708C Plus DSP from eBay, downloaded the software from Sinjoe, but I have a question about one of it's basic functions. I can't seem to find a working user authentication code. 000, 123, 321, 608, 708 or any other random string just says bad (or invalid) code. It does play well with LaserCAD, I have basic control over the unit, so I'm happy with that.
My question tonight is, will I ever need to enter the user code for anything? It's not covered in the manual or software. I've tried Googling for it, but end up with "608" being the answer...and that doesn't work.
I'm looking forward to getting all the parts nested in the housing and wiring everything up! I purchased three Gecko G201X stepper drivers one to drive each axis including the powered Z table from LightObject. Long road ahead of me with a huge learning curve, so I'm hoping I can post questions on the forum and share anything I've learned as well.
I will try, but cannot guarantee, to photograph and document the process. I tend to get caught up in the fun of the build and forget to take pictures.
Thanks in advance,
Phil
