How to Install DRIVERS for Ezcad 2 or Ezcad 3

As usual a great “How to” just at the right time for me! Had a fiber laser 4days when I joined in watching this video, today I set about getting the driver sorted for EZcad2. 1 win 10 1 win 11 laptops. Both can now run EZcad2! However, and its a point newbs like myself should be advised may happen. Lightburn + the Galvo upgrade installs a driver, EZcad2 needs a driver and if / when installed….it wipes out the lightburn driver! At least it did mine! Aftervthe above, I dug out and old win XP laptop, as yet not got Ezcad 2 driver installed…maybe tomorrow With luck and I cab bet my laptops back for the diode lasers! May I suggest a video explaining the need for multiple lenses and which does what and why :)

Thank you for this. I had one issue, When I went to install the drivers, my computer would give me a message that windows has the best drivers available installed. when I tried to run the program it gave me the error "failed to load lmc driver"message. I had to uninstall the drivers and reinstall them for it to work.

[@LaserEverything]

It may be stuck if lightburn + galvo driver for lightburn was installed, or if another driver that had a newer date was applied but wasn't the right driver for the board and computer, or if the pc was trying to search for and apply the driver by itself. Never let it search/apply for laser drivers automatically.

20w should be fine. I'd look for a laser with a high frequency range so you can do some of the cool anneal effects like we do with the gold here in the video. The JPT laser sources are great if you can find a 20 or 30w one.

[@andrewpena5878]

I’m having a hard time finding the ezcad2 I got every thing done all the way to 9 minutes but I can’t find the ezcad 2 shortcut or software to open the application

[@LaserEverything]

The whole ezcad program/folder should come on a flash drive usually with the laser, but if not, you can get a copy from our website. Copy the folder to your desktop or where convenient (so its not running off the flash drive). The program exe inside the folder, when right clicked, you can send a shortcut to the desktop and rename for the lens you're using with that copy. You can also copy, and then when right clicking to paste, choose "paste shortcut" wherever you want it to be accessible as another option.

[@jorgemarrero6718]

greetings! I installed my jpt laser fiber and when I enter the ezcad2 program it tells me demo and it doesn't record. What can I do to install it correctly? thank you

[@LaserEverything]

It's likely an issue with either the driver, or communication to the control board. Check that the USB cable has a good connection and then validate the correct driver is installed.

[@theelitegroup276]

Tried downloading EZCAD2 64 bit drivers and it states your files are located in your trash bin and therefore will not download. Please help. Monthly Member here. Thanks

[@AliRezaOnsori]

Thank's bro...👌🏻

[@Kwkeaton]

Did not work for me. My laser is older, and no driver I try will work. I have "USBLM-V1" and "USB Dongle v1.74" that show up. My software on my old win 7 laptop is 2.5.3, and it works, but i'm trying to use a different pc with windows 10 and I can't get it to recognize with the steps/drivers you provided.

[@LaserEverything]

We've used the process for windows 10 and 11 without much issue, but its important to use the right driver since they aren't interchangeable. ezcad 2 drivers are specific to lasers with the ezcad2 control board (there are several and typically only one will work out of the batch for your setup). One thing to note too is it may be a different driver than what worked on your win7 computer, especially if it was 32 bit, and you're now on a 64 bit version of windows 10. Ezcad 3 being a similar case to ezcad 2, it has specific drivers that will only work with ezcad3 boards. If you are getting setup with lightburn, you need to use the lightburn specific driver, since that also uses its own to communicate with the control board. That one is thankfully just 1 driver, and is bundled with the installer for lightburn. If you're still stuck, I encourage you to join one of the communities we link in the description and open a thread, it's the best way to get support and won't get buried in youtube comments :)

Followed this on Win7 added Win 10 install. I have lightburn and Galvo LB installs its own driver. EzCad 2 is not an install and does not show in DM..pointing the update driver…to the ezcad2 folder..with include subfolders…it reports back the best driver is installer and shows lighturn..the same applies to pointing The update to plug …same result.

[@LaserEverything]

This can be caused by a lot unfortunately. Are you using a hub AND extender, or just an extender? If both, you may need to bypass one of them to determine if one is causing the issue, or both. You may need to bypass and go straight to the computer to determine if its the extension. I've even seen some oddities if the port on the computer is being switched, if for example you have multiple clusters of USB that may have different controllers in the computer. That said, something to consider if you use a laptop and reconnect each day using a hub/extension/dock or swap ports, lots of things to consider, and unfortunately bypassing one at a time to determine if that issue stops is the best way to start.

[@LaserEverything]

The demo warning means the software can not detect your laser. Is the machine turned on? Connected to the pc? Remove any USB hubs or extenders and try plugging the laser directly into the computer. The machine MUST be on in order to use the software. If you'd like to use the software without the machine head to lasereverything.net and grab the "Community Edition" from our downloads page.

[@raytoms4655]

OK turned on the laser and plugged in the usb lead from the laser into the computer. Now says no dongle present. Have they supplied a demo copy ?. Is that the normal way they supply laser machines to the UK.

[@LaserEverything]

No, that error means you might not have installed the driver for ezcad to operate and connect with the laser control card, (or laser isn't on/plugged in, which you already narrowed out). Generally means it can't communicate, whether its software or hardware related. If you installed lightburn + lightburns galvo driver, you will need to swap the driver to work with ezcad, the two software's each need their own driver, and only one will operate at a time.

if a system is running on EZCAD 2.0, is there a need to change the board to run on EZCAD 3.0?

[@LaserEverything]

Yes. The ez2 boards are not capable of communicating with ez3 software, nor are ez3 boards capable of communicating with ez2 software. They are functionally different. If you have a need to operate one software or the other , you will need the appropriate control board for the software to communicate and control.
