I have just received a creality Falcon 10w machine and whilst it might not be the same as with just the module but I found a post elsewhere that suggested disabling the option for ‘USB selective suspend setting’ if you are using windows.
Open search> type ‘edit power plan’>Click advanced>press the + icon next to the USB option> Click on each of the options and select disable.
I have had no issues since I followed this advice…Good luck!!
I recently got a Falcon 10W and it was always disconnecting mid-burn.
I tried grounding everything, still was disconnecting. I check the G-code and the issue was always happening at an S0 (closing the laser) command before a G0 (fast travel) command.
What fixed my issue: Reducing the fast travel speed from 10000 mm/min to 1000 mm/min. I think that the Falcon board can’t handle the inductance from fast accelerations and decelerations.
As of now, I haven’t experienced any issues since.
PS : I also think that grounding every axis to prevent static build up is beneficial.
The Creality Falcon engravers are GRBL devices.
The Ender 3 v2 with the Falcon laser Module in the (previous) first post would be a Marlin device. It’s still GCode but these are different enough topics that I should split them.
This is definitely a good thing to check. The user eliminated the USB connection by working from the on-board SD card so this shouldn’t be the cause.
This is a very solid indicator… It may be worth the effort to test with a more robust power supply. You may find the equipment draws too much ‘inrush’ current or makes the power supply noisily scream for mercy at the previously demanded load.
Great find!
