I actually didn’t know what RDWorks was previously, I had seen it mentioned in similar threads but it looked like it was the firmware running on the controller itself. Now I see that it is a stand-alone Windows app similar to LightBurn, but apparently one that almost nobody uses since I have never heard of it until now (granted I’m a laser newbie with no knowledge of laser software history).
I could only find a download for RDWorks in once place (or at least one place that I trust not to put viruses on my computer): RuiDa Controller Manual and Software Download | Best Co2 Laser Controller
It looks like in that pile of links it would be the one called “RDWorksV8(8.01.52).rar”, but that link is borken. The link below it is the Mac version, which works. The .60 and .54 version links above it are a similar windows/mac pair where the windows link is broken. So no joy.
You really have to wonder why an air setting nobody would ever possibly want became the default. The air assist that came with the machine just runs all the time even when no program is running. Some people have got around this problem by just adding a switch to manually toggle the relay on at the start of a job and turn it back off afterwards. That is certainly less than ideal, but still better than beating up your relay on every job.
