G code G00 for fast and non cutting time instead of G01 F xxx

[poulet (Olivier POULETAUD)]

Hi,
My machine accept G00 code when I create Macro programs. but When I ask Lightburn to make programs, I have G01 with Fxxx in my program.
I know that I can input max speed in machine config but this is not optimum way for programing…
Do you know what I need to change for that?

Than you in advance and sorry for my poor English..

Olivier

Hi Olivier,

G0 not being used to move between G1 commands

The software uses G0 rapids to move between shapes, but when engraving, it uses G1 moves for everything by default because using a consistent speed increases the output quality. You can use faster G1 moves by enabling “Fast Whitespace Scan” in the device settings, and giving it a speed you’d like it to use for the gaps.

Does that satisfy your programming needs?

[LightBurn (Oz)]

The current version of LightBurn will actually use G0 moves if you enable Fast Whitespace and don’t give it a speed to use.
