Techno Stepper DaVinci units are driven by a personal computer.  The computer may and often is supplied by the user, or a preconfigured P.C. may be purchased from Techno.  In either case, the Techno Interface program (outlined below) is included with all units.

The Techno GCODE Interface translates previously generated GCODE toolpath commands and sends them to your DaVinci or C-Series controller, which moves the machine to produce your part. The GCODE Interface also:

* Makes mass production possible by writing files that can be downloaded and run directly from your controller.

* Creates separate configuration files for each of your GCODE programs.

* Previews GCODE toolpaths before running your program.

* Translates and executes your file simultaneously or translates the file and stores it to be run later.

Computer Requirements (not included with machine purchase):
Pentium III / Celeron 600 Mhz, 128MB RAM

Techno GCODE Interface (Stepper)

1. CONFIGURE creates separate configuration files for each of your GCODE programs.

2, JOG manually positions the axes. The axes can be moved to any point you wish to consider your toolpath origin.

3. TRANSLATE / EXECUTE simultaneously translates and executes, GCODE programs.

4. RUN TRANSLATED PROGRAM Executes previously processed toolpath programs.

5. DOWNLOAD sends standalone programs written by the Interface (files with .OUT extensions) to your controller’s memory. Once the file is downloaded, it can be run directly from your controller by simply pressing Start on the machine’s display panel.
 

6. PREVIEW displays the toolpath in graphic format before translation and execution of your file.
