Difference between CORE and PRO software

[djsteves (Steve Smith)]

We are currently awaiting a new laser (one of the GALVO type), and have been told that we will need to make sure we have the PRO version of the software. My question is, how do I know if I already have PRO or just CORE? I mean the top of the window just says Lightburn and the version… as pictured.

Also here is a picture of my License Management Page, but likewise it doesn’ denote CORE or PRO. It does say that the enabled “Device types” include GALVO… does that mean it’s the pro version?

Hello Steve

On Future versions of LightBurn it will be stated at the very TOP of the screen “Lightburn Pro 1.7.04”

Currently, you can check by navigating to HELP > License Management
Check the “Device Types Enabled”:

If Gcode = Then you have a CORE license

If Gcode, DSP, GALVO = Then you have a PRO license

Thank you so much! I was confused for sure!
