Creation Pcut Cr630 Usb Drivers For Mac
Hello from Australia. I've got a relatively new P-Cut CR630 USB only cutter that used to work OK with an old Dell PC I had Windows XP installed on. Now I've reached the throw it out the window stage, trying to get the cutter to install on a Windows 7 (64 bit and 32 bit) computer. All it comes up with is a GPS camera Detect on Com 7. Nothing I do alters that. I downloaded CDM20600.exe and ran it. Nothing happens except a DOS screen pops up breifly and still the GPS camera.
I would really apreciate a bit of help here. I know I didn't buy from US cutter but I will probably get my next machine there if thats any consolation.
Thanks in advance and have a happy holiday. It's the middle of summer here. Seems odd to celebrate Christmas this way for my US friends but I love it. I'm from Australia also.
What sign program are you running for starters?? I had a CR model as well and got rid of it. If you plug in your cutter and turn it on then go to device manager you will find it runs only as a 'Creation USB Board' BUT.
Another feature allows you to organize documents in folders and subfolders, create Smart Folders and send electronic files directly to NeatWorks through the Print dialog box.

I was reading something about the GPS camera which was some kind of way to talk to your cutter, will try and find it and put it up here. One other thing. You didn't happen to buy it from PCS imports in Brisbane did you??
And what are you trying to load on to 64 Bit or 32 Bit? Hate to be the one to tell you this but according to Paul at PCS Imports the CR models are not compatable with a 64 Bit OS. And he doesn't advertise the fact in his eBay store if this is where you got it from. But if it is coming up as a GPS camera on comm 7 make sure you have the same configuration in your cutting software or change comm 7 to comm 4 or something and again make sure your comm is set the same in your software. Well, I did buy it from Ebay and I've been told the same things by the seller as you said here. I guess working with top end equipment all my life makes me think when something runs under 'windows' it relates to any version of 32 bit Windows. Honesty in advertising isn't leaving vital facts out of an advertisement, its including them in it.
Obviously such ethical details escaped the seller. Seeing as Windows 7 didn't fall out of the tree last night and was well and truly a mainstream OS when I bought this cutter earlier this year, I was surprised to discover it only had software/instructions for a 5 year old, obsolete OS. You can't buy a new PC with Windows XP on it any more. Well not a current model one. Microsoft has stopped supporting XP so when they offered to come up with a solution if I paid them $65 plus an hourly rate if it went past a microsecond of their time. (Cheap by some standards) I paid it. Their solution?
Run XP in a virtual machine and install flexi on that, after succesfully installing the drivers. That occupied six hours of my time. Add the other 9 hours I've spent with this problem and I just chewed up more labour cost than I paid for the plotter in the first place!
Have you ever tried to write a sign on an iPhone? Well that's what it looks like in a virtual machine window. I fixed the problem yesterday. I bought what I should have got in the first place. A new Camm 1 Roland. Some might point out the cost of this is a wee bit higher than a P-Cut but at the rate of reliability and the 86 decible racket the P-cut makes, its a refreshing change to unpack a machine and have it work.
Thanks for the reply just the same. No need to defend the seller. They know what they sell and I'm sure their warehouse full of dusty boxes plays heavily on their inventory. I'm a big boy now and well able to answer for my own shortcomings.
Expecting cheap and quality in the same sentence is one of my human failings. We all know it doesn't happen and yet we all keep hoping it will. My 2012 new year resolution?
Keep away from Ebay and bargain boxes! Yes l agree, the CR model is quiet noisy, sounds a bit like a freight train Have since looked at the eBay listing and it does mention in fine print that it is not compatable with a 64 Bit OS. Only a 32 Bit. You would have got Flexi Starter with your cutter, you can run the CR and Flexi in Windows 7 as long as it's a 32 Bit OS. Mine worked in XP but used Vista as my main PC for cutting using the CR and Flexi Starter. A friend of mine also has the same set-up 'CR and Flexi Starter Operating from Windows 7' so unsure why you had to pay Microsoft for a solution and run XP on a vertual machine. You are not just limited to XP!!
Think you just needed a more of an understaing on how to set it up on a different OS. I replaced my CR with a Pcut CS 1200. Because as mentioned in the previuos post l could only run the cutter as 'Creation USB Board' and seemed to be limited to using the Flexi Starter with a USB connection only and had trouble with it stopping mid cut sometimes but certainly wasn't limited to just using XP. Like your new Roland, my CS is very quiet and fast, and is l think almost comparable to a Roland. It runs most days and nearly all day for the past 9 months without a problem. I don't run Flexi Starter anymore either because it's very limited in what it can do. I am using Signblazer with a USB/SERIAL driver in comm 4 on my Vista laptop.

Signblazer is older than your Flexi Stater and people here are running it even on Window 7 (They are not just limited to XP) I wouldn't compare all Pcut's based on the CR model, there are higher levels of this type of cutter IMO. But in any case your new Roland is a huge step-up from your Pcut.
