However, we primarily use the .GBR (Gerber) format as it is a standarized format for the fabrication of the CIF and allows for the most amount of control of the fabrication process. | However, we primarily use the .GBR (Gerber) format as it is a standarized format for the fabrication of the CIF and allows for the most amount of control of the fabrication process. |

La machine est piloté par un logiciel "Galaad" qui permettre dessiner et généré la "[[https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmation_de_commande_num%C3%A9rique|Gcode]]" (Language compris par les machines CNC pour piloter les moteurs XYZ). Cependant, en generale nous ne modelisé pas utilisant Galaad. On vera que on utilise Galaad simplement comme un pont entre nos plans et notre CIF. | |

The CIF is controlled through an interface called "Galaad" which allows for basic design work and the generation of "[[https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmation_de_commande_num%C3%A9rique|Gcode]]" (A standard language used to communicate with the motors of a CNC machine). However, we do not generally use Galaad for it's design capabilities as it is far inferior to dedicated design software (see below). We use Galaad primarily as a "Computer Automated Machining" (CAM) software or a bridge between the design software and the CIF. | The CIF is controlled through an interface called "Galaad" which allows for basic design work and the generation of "[[https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmation_de_commande_num%C3%A9rique|Gcode]]" (A standard language used to communicate with the motors of a CNC machine).

These two softwares do the exact same work and have the same functions. The preference for one over the other is largely subjective and is generally based upon which program yoou learned first. | These two softwares do the exact same work and have the same functions.

In case a cable of the CIF becomes accidently unplugged we have provided a basic schematic of the wiring. All of the cables are marked appropriately on the CIF respecting this diagram. In addition to these wires there is a USB flash-drive that must stay permentaly plugged into the computer operating the CIF. The license is on this USB drive. DO NOT TOUCH THE USB! | FIXME: enlarge figure |
