Centroid Pro CNC Update

Post by 762x51 »

I just got my Windows 10 PC running and setup as shown in the Centroid video then hooked up the Acorn in the "Bench Test" mode sitting at my desk.

I had purchased the license for Centroid Pro CNC and received a email with the license file but no instructions on how to install the license.
Anyone know how to do this?

Found it...

From main screen;
F7 Utility > F8 Option > F2 Import Unlocks > Select "License-xxxx" file from where you have stored it and system will unlock the version you have purchased.

Thanks for bringing that to our attention.

The below instructions are going to be included with every unlock from now on:

1) Save the attached license file on your computer.
2) Start the CNC software.
3) Choose the F7 Utility menu
4) Choose the F8 Option menu
5) Choose the F2 Import Unlocks function. This will open a file dialog. Navigate to the location where the license file attachment was saved and select it. Click Open.
