When i start up lightburn and my laser i have to go to devices and find my laser every time once i do that it seems to be working, shut it down and come back to it later same thing, also getting error 5, homing not enabled in grbl settings, looked for that and couldn’t find it, im new to this so it must be something im missing hopefully you all can help a old man out, thanks
Either always have the laser on before turning on LightBurn or make sure that the correct port is selected in the port field between Devices button and device name in Laser window.
Does your machine have homing switches? If not, then don’t attempt to home the laser and disable “Auto-home on start” in Edit->Device Settings. If it does have homing switches then you can enable homing in GRBL configuration of Machine Settings.
Typically that would already be set on if your machine came with homing switches.
Yes it has limit switches, thanks for the help
