Installing TRACECUT on your PC
Assembling the TRACECUT dongle for your PC
Notes...
Your TRACECUT system may be supplied with many different types of
dongle. Each type of dongle has a specific use and can be identified by
its serial number. Refer to the TRACECUT on-line help for further
information.
A dongle (see Figure 2.6) is a software protection device that must be
connected to your PC to allow full use of TRACECUT. If no dongle is
present, only communication between the PC and the machine tool is
possible.
The dongle supplied with TRACECUT is for parallel port connection
only.

Remove the TRACECUT dongle and TRACECUT software from the
