How to use ReplicatorG 3D software?

Please see the lessons in attached file.
First, If this is the first time that you use ReplicatorG,Please connect your computer with the printer, Open Machine->Driver and choose te drive. If the model is Thing-O-Matic MK6（3mm filament), you can choose Thing-O-Matic w/ HBP and Extruder MK6, and if te model is Thing-O-Matic MK7(1.75mm flament), you can choose Thing-O-Matic w/ HBP and Extruder MK7. See attachment 01.jpg.

Second, the machine is connected with the computer by USB. You need setup ReplicatorG and select the interface. The Prot slsection process is Machine->Serial Port. See attachment 02.jpg.

After adjust completed, press CONFIRM dialog box.Thing-O-Matic will retrn automatic. See attachment 04.jpg.


Fifth, Print the STL format drawing
Open the STL format document
File->Open, and then open the STL document. See attachment 05.jpg.[forums.reprap.org]

Sixth, After selecting the STL document, you can see the 3D model display. See See attachment 06.jpg.
