Enable cut through mode

LightBurn Software Questions
1

Hi Everybody,
I search the forum but could not find anything about the enable cut through mode. Can some one explain to me how that function works?
If it helps I have a red and black 50w laser with a ruida controller.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

From the LightBurn documentation:
Documentation/Operations.md at master · LightBurnSoftware/Documentation · GitHub

This setting is only available for Ruida and GRBL based machines. Enabling this setting will allow the laser to dwell in the same position after initially firing or before turning off based on the settings below, and is useful for piercing thick materials before the cut starts.

  • Start pause time (ms): Number of milliseconds to fire the laser before moving
  • End pause time (ms): Number of milliseconds to fire the laser at the end of a move
  • Power (%): Percentage of laser power while paused
