Having to reconnect laser everytime door is opened

[Stroonzo (Jeff)]

Are you wanting to maintain the door protection? If your desire is to override the door protection, you could jumper the door output on the controller.

In Openbuilds control there is an unlock button in the gui, is there anything similar in lightburn

This thread is a bit dated, so maybe current versions of LightBurn are different. I live in the DSP world for my laser, so I am limited on familiarity with other controllers. @LightBurn may have more current advice.

Grbl 1.1 Door as feed hold

Per the Grbl 1.1 docs we have the door tripping the feed hold and enable in config.h for this to be treated as door open. However when the door is closed machine does not resume. If the door is opened other than during a cut, typing ~ does resume and return control of the machine. However if Lightburn is sending a job to grbl and the door is opened there is no way to resume as it would appear lightburn doesn’t send the realtime commands .
