I recently got a Creality CR- Falcon 10 Watt laser engraver. It cuts files but wont engrave. when i try to engrave/etch it goes through the motions but the laser doesn’t fire. I am completely new to all of this so some help would greatly be appreciated. In simplied terms ha ha! I reached out to Creality and they told me it sounds like a software issue. I attached the air assist recently and it would hit the side when it would home and trigger a hard limit warning and shut down my laser. I went in and changed settings but i cant remember what i changed trying to remedy it, now it says Spindle_pmw_off_value:0,000000 spindle_pwm_min_value:46035.000000 Spindle_pwm_max_value:1023.000000. I have no clue what that means. Anyone have a clue?
a) you can revert firmware to defaults with $RST=*
(type this in console and press enter)
b) make sure you set your profile by hand and are using GRBL as driver type
c) make sure you are in mm/min and not mm/sec (edit → settings)
I tried and it gives me Error:3 Grbl ‘$’ system command was not recognized or supported.
make sure you type it fully and if you can post the screenshot of your console window
$RST=*
[MSG:Restoring defaults]
ok

Grbl 1.3a [‘$’ for help]
mmm somehting is really funky on that console output
Did you double check your GRBL setup on the profile?
Seems you are getting debug data from the serial port and not actual GRBL firmware
The code worked getting to work despite its wonky message. ty for all your help! As long as its functional i will live
