Send a job

Send to process in the editor saves the drawing as a project and hands it to the Process screen. Process is the only screen that talks to the machine.

Process screen with a job loaded: toolpath preview, estimated time, passes, path length and the safety checklist

What the job card shows

Field	Meaning
Job name	The project name; tap it in the editor to rename.
Toolpath preview	The real path the laser will follow, drawn on the machine's work area (Bed 44 × 50 mm here).
Estimated time / passes / path length	Computed from the layer parameters. Cut 72.7 mm · Est. 00:01 in the screenshot is one pass around a rectangle.
Progress line	`0 / 15 lines` — how much of the job the controller has acknowledged.

Before you start

The yellow card is a physical checklist, not a legal disclaimer:

the shield is closed,
the material is secured inside the work area,
the air pump and exhaust are running.

Buttons

Button	Action
Start	Sends the job and starts cutting. Requires a live connection to the controller.
Rectangle frame / Circle frame	Traces the job's bounding box (or a circle around it) so you can check placement on the material.
Reset / Home	Controller reset, and a homing cycle.
Clear alarm	Sends a soft reset after an alarm.
Write to SD card / Run from SD card	Copies the job to the card in the controller and runs it from there — the path to use when you are not on the machine's network.
Run log	What the controller said, line by line.

If the job card says “No job selected”

Process stays empty until a drawing has been sent. Finish the drawing in Edit and tap Send to process — sending an empty project produces an empty job (0 entities, 0 × 0 mm) and the card stays blank.

Connection messages

The line above Start is the live link report. A timed-out attempt looks like this:

Cannot connect to 192.168.0.1:23: SocketException:
Connection timed out, host: 192.168.0.1, port: 23 (OS Error:
Connection timed out, errno = 110)

That means the controller is not reachable at that address right now. Open the device bar and run the network check — it will tell you whether you are on the wrong network, off the hotspot, or the machine is simply off.
