Scenario

When running a File, the Progress Bar or the Current Position is not being updated.

Problem

There is a setup issue. The settings in the Techno CNC Interface need to be adjusted.

Solution

Visit Interface Update Frequency to set your software appropriately. This setting will allow your software to update the positional and progress display much faster.

Important Note

The different computer speed options exist due to different performance among host computers. If you machine starts jerking or decreases cut quality, this means that the computer is not fast enough to process the cutting job and to update the screen. In this case, make sure to update the range to a less intensive setting.
