Unable to create Hello PIN - Stuck in login loop

Hello!

I recently purchased a Langmuir CNC machine system and one of the steps is to log into a Microsoft account to access the application. As per the instructions included, I created a Microsoft account. After creating a login, it asks me to create a “Hello PIN” in the pop-up window. When hitting next, it tells me that something went wrong.

“ we weren’t able to set up your pin. You can try again, or skip this step and set up a pin later.”

What attempting to skip for now it just takes me back and asked me to login again. The device I am trying to set up as a CNC plasma cutter that requires a login. The screen that it comes with does not allow me to do any command searches esc that previous forms have suggested. I’ve also attempted to login separately from my computer and see if I can set up my pin there. I see no option under security>advanced options> add login option to add hello pin option.

Can you please assist as I’m unable to use my CNC machine without setting up my windows account.

Thank you!
