plug in the unit and turn on the power.
If using the Serial Cable to connect your cutter to a computer:
If using the USB Cable to connect your cutter to a computer:
(USB is the recommeded connection method)
If you are using a Serial Cable to connect your cutter to a computer then
no further setup is necessary. Simply connect one end of the cable to
the cutter and the other end to a computer and setup is complete. If
you have more than one serial connection on your computer or you are
experiencing communication issues between your cutter and computer
then you may wish to verify that the correct COM port is being used in
your software setup, but for most users the COM port will be COM1.
In most cases, all needed PC drivers will be preloaded in VinylMaster.
If you need to download and install drivers for the USB connection to
work properly go to
