How do I install the software?

There are 2 steps to installing the EZCad software that controls your LaserKube:

  • Installing the software on your PC
  • Installing the LaserKube driver.

The software license is stored in LaserKube (you don’t have physical access to it).
This means you can install the software on several different PCs without having to worry about transferring or installing any licenses.
The software will detect the license when LaserKube is connected to your PC via the USB cable.
If you start the EZCad software without having connected your PC to the machine, the software will start in “Demo” mode.
