You may now start setting up your cutter by opening SignCut, go to Settings, select Cutter, then set Refine as manufacturer and Refine 1 HPGL (for Pro 1) or Refine 2 DMPL (for Pro 2) as cutter model.

6. Close the Cutter dialogue and open it again. Look at the same device output list again, and now you should see a new port. This is the port for your cutter, select it.
7. Check the value of the Baud Rate (BR) that shown on the display panel of your cutter.

If no new output option shows up it means that you have to install the communication driver for your cutting plotter. You should have received it together with your cutter on a CD or it should be available on the website of the reseller or the manufacturer of your machine.
