CS41 Control software version
The control software version we have on our CS41 is 7.2.1.8. What was the newest version of the control software for this machine, and if it's newer than what we have, how could I go about getting it? All I see on the Thermwood website are QCore updates. Thanks!

Prior to version 8.7, whatever version you were on is the version you were on unless you paid for an update. So in your case, you may be able to get retrofits to build you a hard drive with a latest version 7 on it, but it would depend on hardware on your machine. If you can, that would at least get you Machine Variables and built in flycut.
It would be a bit more of a stretch, but you can upgrade to latest and greatest software, same as what is on your 45. Better hardware than what is on the 45 though, a 6 core processor, Windows 10, solid state hard drive.
You can email retrofits@thermwood.com for a quote on either option if it interests you. They will want serial number in the email to match everything up.

Re: CS41 Control software version
Clint, thanks for the info. Was just curious if we could do a software upgrade for maybe a few hundred dollars to get a couple of the additional features (like you said). But if it means new hardware, I'm sure that would run into the thousands. The machine works fine as it is, it just keeps on keeping on...we'll just keep using it until we can replace the entire thing with a 5x8 machine.

Got a rough idea from retrofits, you'd be in it a few thousand, about half the cost of going to latest and greatest. If you want actual numbers feel free to reach out to retrofits. If not, run it till it dies or electronics parts cost more than retro parts.
