Hey all,
Just upgraded my software and computer. Moved my perfs over to new computer, and kicked on my first project. Now my laser (4.2 JTech on GRBL) isn’t burning as dark as it used to… it appears to only be kicking at 10%. Checked GRBL settings (laser mode on and @ 1000 - not 100). The only thing I can think of is that I missed something during the upgrade on the software.
Any thoughts out there, maybe a setting I need to check? I am burning @ 25ipm 100% laser with Threshhold…
I can only think that one of the perfs didn’t transfer over… or something like that?
I just had a similar problem, only my laser wouldn’t burn at all. It came on, but didn’t burn. What I discovered is that in GBRL I had changed my spindle speed $30 from 1000 to 10,000. I eventually noticed that my S-value setting in Lightburn was at 250. I upped my S-value to 1000 and lowered my $30 to !000 also. This fixed my problem. Apparently both those values must be the same for Lightburn to work properly. Hopefully this will work for you!
