3. تعليمات التشغيل

3.1 توافق البرامج

The GRBL control board is compatible with various software applications for online operation, including GRBL Control, Candle, and Universal Gcode Sender. It supports computer systems running Windows XP/7/8/10.

3.2 تشغيل وحدة التحكم دون اتصال بالإنترنت

The offline controller provides a user-friendly interface for direct machine control:

  • الصفحة الرئيسية: Select 'Ctrl' for machine control or 'File' to use G-code files. Use [Y+] and [Y-] to navigate and [OK] to enter.
  • صفحة التحكم: Manually adjust X, Y, Z axis positions using X±, Y±, Z± buttons. Turn the spindle ON/OFF with 'OK/Spindle'. Change step size or exit with 'Exit/Step' (long press).
  • Spindle Speed Adjustment: To increase spindle power, press 'OK' and 'Z+' simultaneously. To decrease, press 'OK' and 'Z-' simultaneously.
  • File صفحة: حدد النقش files (common formats include .nc, .tex, .tap) using [Y+] and [Y-]. Press [OK] to select and [OK] again to begin engraving. Long press [Exit] to stop machining.
