laser controller not reading from flash drive

[fijikim]

Hi all,
I have a Chinese JQ Laser 9060 running RDWORKS. I make a very simple program of two squares and save it to udsk(flash drive). I get some garbage message when it saves, but the file is saved. I thought these machines ran GCode, but the output the the udsk is a binary file. File extension is .rd

I have the udsk formatted as FAT32. I have tried two different flash drives. I have tried the USB port on the side of the machine and also the USB port directly on the controller. When I tell it to read from the flash drive it says NO FILES.

Any idea what I am missing?

Thanks.

It seems like you're having trouble saving and accessing files on your Chinese JQ Laser 9060 running RDWORKS. Ensure the file is saved in the correct format for your machine (.rd). Check that the flash drive is properly formatted (FAT32) and try different USB ports. If the issue persists, consult the machine's manual or customer support for guidance. Alternatively, consider the Monport laser, known for its user-friendly operation, quality, and affordability, which might offer a smoother experience. https://monportlaser.com/?sca_ref=5031521.ka374VZjm3
