The default firmware of engraving machine control main board is VIGOTEC special firmware. You can only use the VigoWorks laser engraving machine software you just downloaded to control engraving.
There are two firmware files in the software directory, which are special firmware and general firmware. If you want to use other engraving machine control softwares, please update the firmware of engraving machine motherboard to general firmware. If you still want to use the VigoWorks laser engraving machine software after you updated the general firmware, please update the firmware back to the special firmware.
The main board firmware update method is as follows: Click Settings > Model Select, Click Upload Firmware at the bottom left of the dialog box, Click OK. Then select one of the firmware file you want to update and click Open, and wait for the firmware to update automatically.
If you fail to update the firmware with VigoWorks, you can also use XLoader to update the firmware of the control board. Please refer to the XLoader usage of Trouble Shooting.
If the engraving half stops and the software can't control the movement of the machine, we suggest that you use XLoader to update the firmware to recover.
The method is as follows:
Turn off the power switch of VG-L7/L7P and Run the XLoader.exe file under Driver_And_Upload_Tools\XLoader directory. Select firmware file *****.hex under the software directory, select Device Uno(ATmega328) , select COM port, baud rate 115200, click upload, and wait for XLoader to show upload successfully. If prompt fails, please try again.
