Here’s the info dump:
I am using a Universal Engraver 3000mW blue CNC engraver. The instructions are chinese and some very broken english.
Currently I am using Lightburn 0.9.20 and I’m on GRBL 1.1h. I believe I am using a COM5 controller, but I will attach a picture.
When I type $$ in the console here is what I get:
$0=10
$1=100
$2=0
$3=0
$4=0
$5=0
$6=0
$10=2
$11=0.010
$12=0.002
$13=0
$20=0
$21=1
$22=1
$23=0
$24=200.000
$25=1000.000
$26=0
$27=5.000
$30=255
$31=2
$32=1
$100=84.000
$101=80.000
$102=250.000
$110=4000.000
$111=4000.000
$112=5000.000
$120=200.000
$121=200.000
$122=400.000
$130=584.000
$131=495.000
$132=40.000
I have tried very hard to solve this issue without making my own post, so I’ve messed with many settings to varying degrees of success. I should note that I have gotten decent looking burns in the past on certain settings, but the speed was always under 100mm/m and the power was at 100%. Some burns take 16 hours or more, and they don’t look perfect. Now it isn’t working at all.
The laser controls fine and outlines the area I want, it just simply isn’t burning wood at 100% power and at 100mm/m. Going slower is not the solution I think, I must be doing something wrong. If any other information is required I am more than happy to provide it.
(I know I’m double posting in 2 different categories and that’s a horrible thing to do, but I thought I would post in a different area and at a different time since I have not gotten any replies on the other one and this is an urgent issue)
