How can I use older USB interfaces with the Laserworld Showeditor?

You can use older Laserworld USB interfaces only as SLAVE DACs with the Laserworld Showeditor. For doing so, you'll need a Laserworld ShowNET interface with a valid Showeditor License. Depending on your operating system follow these steps:

3. A new window opens, type: shutdown.exe /r /o /f /t 00
4. Click "OK"
5. After Windows restarting, you'll see the "Options Menu"
6. Click "Troubleshoot"
7. Click "Advanced Options"
8. Click "Startup Settings"
9. Press "Reboot"
10. After the folowing restart you'll see different options. Click the number key for "Disable driver signature enforcement"
11. After another restart install the Laserworld USB interface driver and follow the insctructions below

After step 10 or when using Windows 7 (or older versions):
1. Install the USB driver for the Laserworld USB interface
2. Install Showeditor
3. Install the ShowNET interface
4. Run Showeditor
5. You can read a massage that says that your dongle key is not suitable for this software. Click "OK"
6. A request aks you, if this message should appear again. Click "NO".
7. Now both interfaces can be used together with the Showeditor. If the error message appears agian, the ShowNET with the license might not be installed properly.
