Re: Control panel wont connect to controller
I'm having the same issue with mine. It's an old Shark HD 2.0. I bought a new computer when for some reason my old one wouldn't connect to my Wi-Fi after I moved to Missouri. Installed Aspire and the shark Control Panel v2.1 and it doesn't connect to the PC. the message says I need to connect it to ...

Re: Vcarve Letters
That's the same thing I would suggest. Used the Flat depth like Bob suggested. Did it work for you?

Re: z axis runaway
I used the screen only once. Never again after that. LOL Use the mouse, it's a safer bet.

Re: .TAP file for the Piranha
Good luck with the download. Let us know how it works out. If it worked with V-Carve it should work with Aspire. Aren't both programs basically the same, it's just that Aspire does more?

Re: computer to use
You'll probably buy a computer with windows 8. I did and when it came out, I upgraded to 10. Either one will work fine with the software. I did the upgrade because it was free and read that it worked fine with Aspire 8.

Re: .TAP file for the Piranha
I believe you need to create a new tap file for the piranha. Each tap file is configured to a particular machine and the shark post processor won't work the same as it does on piranha. I may be wrong since both machines come from the same manufacturer. I'd look to see if there a post processor for t...

Re: Gantry Height
When I bought my shark I placed the gantry at the lowest level I could, thinking I didn't need much Z height for the type of projects I planned on cutting. And that pretty much is how I feel today. I use a porter cable router and it protrudes about a 1/4" from the bottom of the clamp. That said, you...

Re: CNC Software HD 2.0 plus
I had windows 8 at first and later when it came out I upgraded to 10. So I'm sure, either way you do it, it will be fine.
