This topic and its subtopics discuss interface-specific information and options that have to do with the Machine Options dialog box (Edit | Preferences | Machine Interface Setup).

Machine Options - LKDriver Interface

The LKDriver interface is used with an LK machine with a LK3000 or LK2000 controller. You must obtain the common driver software directly from LK. You must install and configure it before you attempt to install and use the PC-DMIS interface that utilizes it.

The common driver DLL is named something similar to LKCMMDRV53.DLL depending on the version number of the driver. There are also various other DLL’s that LK provides with the driver that must be present for the driver to work properly. The earliest version that you can use with the PC-DMIS interface is LKCMM21.DLL. Earlier versions are not compatible.

Before you start PC-DMIS, rename lkdriver.dll to interfac.dll.
