■ Check again the elaborate setup for steps & directions commands.

(4) Which PC models MaxMotion work with?

Any PC type computer that can handle Windows 3.X, 95, or 98

environment. A PC with Intel Pentium 133 MHz type processor or

faster is desirable as well as 16 MB RAM memory is very useful. The

me to work on my next job. Do I stand to lose any of my work if I

start a new job while the PC is working with the engraving/ routing

spooler is turned on, the job will be spooled before sending out to the

engraving/routing machine. If you know that your machine has a large

buffer to store the job, and many of them do, then do not use the

Windows spooler. It will be faster to send the job over to the machine

within seconds and go on to the next job.

However, it is important to know that if you are using MaxMotion

Virtual Controller to replace a controller, essentially, your PC is the
