TITAN Connection Method

TITAN Connection Method

Preface

This document briefly introduces the TITAN connection method, helping users quickly understand how to establish connections correctly and efficiently.

Connection method

USB and Ethernet connection

NotesDue to the Titan series being equipped with a WiFi board and utilizing an integrated transmission architecture, its connection mechanism differs from other series: whether connecting via USB or Ethernet, it must be achieved through an IP address. Therefore, its USB connection logic differs from the direct connection mode of conventional models.

  1. First, connect the laser machine and PC with the USB or Ethernet cable that is provided with the machine.
Notes
Regarding the USB connection method, please pay attention to the operating sequence: the USB cable must be plugged in first, and then the machine power must be turned on. If the order is reversed (power on first and then plug in the USB cable), the machine will not be able to recognize the device, resulting in connection failure.
