Quick Start Guide Overview
Buildbotics CNC Controllers that were purchased after July 1st, 2018 do not require an external
computer for control, but rather allow users to connect a monitor, a USB keyboard, and a USB
mouse to configure and operate the controller. The ability to configure and operate the
Buildbotics CNC Controller from another computer via an Ethernet or Wifi local area network is
still provided. It’s also possible to have local and network interface control simultaneously.
