== Software == | == Software == | ||
=== RDWorksV8 === | |||
*The software that drives the Boss laser from the attached computer is called RDWorksV8, the version that is appropriate to use is '''8.01.18'''. That is not the most recent version of the software, but it is the most recent approved version for PS1. It is available for free download if you'd like to set up your files prior to coming to use the laser. | |||
*If you are having issues with loading RDWorks files, verify that you are using the correct version of the software as they are not backwards compatible. | |||
*If RDWorks is missing from your start menu or desktop, or your old shortcut to RDWorks doesn't work, you can find the program at start/C:/Program Files/RDWorks. You can open the program by clicking the RDWorksV8 application in that folder. | |||
** '''DO NOT MOVE THAT APP TO YOUR OWN DESKTOP.''' or everyone will lose access to it. | |||
** If you'd like to add a shortcut to your desktop right click on the application>create shortcut and place the shortcut on your desktop. | |||
* | === Lightburn === | ||
* | *Lightburn is a paid/licensed software and is very similar to RDWorks but with a cleaner user experience and improved set of features. | ||
*Computer updates can sometimes wipe the license. You can reactivate the local license using the copy of the license found on the root of the C:\ drive of the Boss' computer. | |||
