To correctly initialize the system with multiple PCs, please follow the steps below:

1.Install the SAMLight software and hardware as described in the SAMLight manual.

2.Adjust the settings and jobs according to your needs.

3.The settings can be bound to the specific card ID via 'Check Dongle ID in USC Server' in the General Hardware settings, ensuring that only the correct settings file is used.

4.Save the job (*.sjf file) and press the buttons 'Save Settings Now' and 'Save Pens Now' in the Settings - General tab to make sure all settings are saved and save the job (*.sjf file) in a location where all PCs of the setup have access to (see note).

5.Go to the Hardware Settings (via Settings - System - Optic - Advanced) and press the 'Store' button to save the current settings on the card.

6.Create a backup of the current state via Help - 'Generate Backup.zip'. This file should be renamed so its connection to the card is recognizable and save it in a location where all PCs of the setup have access to (see note) . A manual backup should include the following files:

a.The *.sjf file of the created jobs.

b.A copy of the current sc_light_settings.sam located in <SCAPS>\system.

c.The current version of SAMLight.

d.The currently used firmware of the card.

e.The serial number and system ID of the corresponding card.

f.(Optional: If Motion Type 14 is used, the files sc_motion_settings.txt and sc_motion_stepper_settings.txt should also be included).

7.Upload your job on the card by using the Extras -> Flash dialog.

 

Afterwards, you can disconnect the card from the PC, re-power the card and mark your job using Flash.
