When 'Holder' is set to Pen Tool Nothing Happens

When 'Holder' is set to Pen Tool Nothing Happens

I am trying to use the Pen Tool. When I go to cutter in SCAL 4 and set holder to 'Pen Tool' select the Cut button nothing happens. My connection between MAC and Silver Bullet is fine.

Be sure that you have our file configured to draw. Select the file and on the right hand side click on the wrench. The machine won't do anything if it is on Cut (default). Click on the drop down menu and select draw (pen). It should work fine then.

Hey LPOE I have the EXACT SAME problem as well!!!!! I've emailed Brandon about it....but haven't heard anything yet......instead of changing it to "Pen Tool" just change your Blade Offset and Overcut both to .00 .......Hope that helps!!!

Penny - see my comment above - you just have to agree with the line choice - if you have cut line chosen it won't work - choose draw lines and it works fine.
