The SC2 is out of my price range. I guess I will just have to buy an MH series cutter from USC the same size as this one and cut my losses.

Hhhmm they are slightly different than what I have. Here is my motherboard

bassboy3313 started following Vinyl Cutter Burning Smell
-
Hello. I have a knockoff vinyl cutter that is basically the same as the USCutter MH series. The other day I went to turn it on and the screen looked weird. After a minute or so I started smelling a burning smell, looked at the vinyl cutter and saw a very thin stream of smoke coming from behind the screen. I immediately turned it off and unplugged it. I let it sit for a bit and turned it back on. Now, the screen flashes on and off in a steady rhythm and the blade hold moves up and down at the same rhythm. Any ideas on what I can do to fix this? I took the side covers and the screen off and don't really see any signs of burnt wires or pins on any circuit boards. Any and all help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Looks like I will most likely be purchasing Vinylmaster. Just downloaded the demo to see what it can all do and seems to be equivalent enough to work. -

That would make sense. Now that you mention that, I think what I have been doing is selecting "break apart" due to not being able to simply "ungroup" when I open the .eps in flexisign. I believe the ungroup option is grayed out. Is there another way to separate the different designs from each other without breaking it apart when the ungroup command is grayed out? MZ SKEETER, you said you cut 2 of the designs that I posted earlier just fine. How did you separate those 2 designs from the others? Was your ungroup command grayed out or no? -

I've been cutting 24" x 10ft length designs no problem with it, thank you very much. By unlimited I meant larger than what SCAL and some other programs allow you to. -

From what I am reading about vinylmaster, it may the the way to go for the time being. The question is, can I use vinylmaster on multiple cpmputers? Or can I still design in inkscape on my work computer and open the files in vinylmaster once I get home after work? -

Never knew that. The computer came with the cutter when I bought it since it had the software on it already. Never heard of a software needing a dongle to work. Looks like I got screwed, huh? Crap! Well, I guess flexisign is out of the question now since it's way too expensive to purchase "again". What other software can do large format (30" x unlimited length), but doesn't cost close to $1k? I've heard Sure Cuts A Lot is good, but it limits the length you can cut to 72". Is this true? Sorry for all this. Glad I am aware now that this software isn't legit. Gotta do some research on other software now... -

Sorry. Had a work meeting till late last night. I know its flexisignpro 10 and I am using a yescom 34" vinyl cutter (shown below). I know it can't be the cutter itself since when opening the .eps file in flexisignpro and "breaking the design apart, it shows all the individual lines that were created for some reason. So it has to be either the way I am saving the .eps from inkscape or the way flexisign is opening the .eps -

I've had good success here with finding answers to issues in the past, but I can try them too. -

Yes its a subscription. Would this have anything to do with the issue I am having with opening inkscape .eps files in flexisignpro or? -

If you mean that the actual program itself is on a thumb drive, then no. Its on my personal computer at home and not "portable" in a sense. -

I dont use a thumb drive. When I do a design in inkscape at work, I have been saving it as an .EPS file and emailing it to myself. Then I just download the .EPS from my email on my personal computer. Then open it in Flexi.
