Bought a slightly used machine but I have it running and am enjoying learning all this stuff. I have a USB to USB connection on my laptop (no 9 pin serial connection on my laptop). Software is Flexi Starter. The problems I am having is that I can cut a few times, go back to cut something else and it won't cut. Production manager says it is cutting but nothing is going on on the cutter. I have to delete cutter setup, add setup, go out of Flexi, cut cutter off and back on and then I can get it to cut. Also on a long cut, maybe a job of a yard or more it will stop and the cutter says "waiting" and I get a "write port error" showing in production manager.
Does all of this have to do with my connection cable? I appreciate all the help you can give me.
Thanks,
Lynette
