How to turn on Set Origin in Lightburn

[hmatyas1 (Harvey J Matyas)]

Hi
I have a Diode copy of Lightburn that I use at home, and it has an Origin button. I also use Lightburn for CO2 laser at a makerspace. I can’t find the set origin button.
Under the past question, someone did ask this question but then he found the button and the topic was closed.

Thank you,

@hmatyas1

use Lightburn for CO2 laser at a makerspace

CO₂ lasers with Ruida controllers handle that function internally, where LightBurn can’t reach it.

The machine console should have an Origin button to do what you want:

• Jog the laser head to the appropriate spot
• Poke the Origin button on the console
• Set Start from: User Origin in LightBurn
• Profit!

The set Origin button is dependent on two aspects

• Compatible controller
• Beginner Mode being not enabled
  
  

If yours is enabled, uncheck it - click ok
Close and restart Lightburn

And what @ednisley said

On a Ruida, you must set the origin from the machines console… there is no software way to set a user origin.
