MH871 New Install Not Polling in Flexi 10

Recommended Posts

I hope I posted this in the proper forum.

I just purchased an USCutter MH871

Installed it and the software that came with it.

Windows 7

Comport 1 Hookup

Can anyone tell me why my Flexi sign pro 10 is not polling?

I get the error:

"Cutter is not responding to poll size"

I have uninstalled, re installed, check connection etc.

It will cut but not poll

Thank you!

From my understanding, there isn't any 'polling' ability on the MH cutter ---  the software is looking for something that doesn't exist.

Thank you slice&dice!

That's sad but I'm also glad I;m not the idiot I started to feel like after trying to get things to poll for hours.

you also need to install the ftdi driver for the plotters usb emulation chipset for the plotter to communicate with the computer - - - this plotter uses a cheaper shipset and it not a regular usb set up like your printer would be - - - -

slice is correct. the MH is a very "dumb" cutter. It just cuts, no smarts to it at all.

using a $2500 software on a $300 plotter you will lose some functionality of that top shelf software ;)   graphtecs and rolands will poll - maybe even a titan2
