How do I make the $32 = True permanent?

LightBurn Software Questions

I tried changing $32 in the console but it wouldn’t let me enter it at all. Is there something I’m missing? I opened Console, scrolled down to $32 = 0. I tried to enter 1 and nothing. I then tried to enter it below the window instead (where I thought I should enter it) and still nothing. WTH? Once I manage to change this, will it remain the same forever? Thanks

$32=1
Press enter
In the console box that says “type gcode commands here”

However. some firmwares - which i dont know if the case on yours - are “write protected”
So the change won’t be saved to the EEPROM

Thanks for the reply. I’ll check it when I get home. I have all my settings and kerf set up but this one thing is driving me crazy. And it uses up my material. LOL I’ll shut everything down, do a cold start up and see if I can do it without a project in it. Now that I’m thinking about it, that might be what’s going on. I was tired, got frustrated and never considered that. Thanks. I’ll update for others if that’s the what happened.

Try this
$32=1
press enter
$$
press enter
(it will output all variables)
check if $32=1
if so, power off , power back on
Connect again
$$
press enter
Recheck $32=1

Now there are a few ways to go around this. you can go to EDIT > device settings > Gcode tab > on the top box type $32=1
and it will always do it before starting a job

However, I am uncertain if $32=1 takes immediate effect or needs a restart.
if the latter, it won’t help much

You typed $32 = 0. There are no spaces in the command. $32 = 1 is not the same as $32=1.

It let me enter it this time. And no spaces. It worked so far. Oh the fun of learning the little stuff. LOL
