Product Options / Configuration
To ensure compatibility with your CNC set up, you will need to specify the following attributes of your control system:
- Router / Plasma: Plasma systems include a torch height control card that can interface with the laser controls. Router systems require a small separate breakout board to provide this interface.
- Current / Pre-2019: Controllers built prior to 2019 will require an updated CRP850-00E and CRP860-00E breakout board in order to work with laser. Contact us if you need assistance identifying the version of your controller.
