XCS software will not find my device. I have made sure it is connected. Device can be found in Lightburn but not XCS. Tried the bottom link and it shows a bunch of files which can not be download

May I know what’s the version of XCS? It is beta 5 or beta 6? Please follow this link and try to figure it out: Target device not found when connecting – xTool .

Ok so that shows it is up to date. Now when I try to use the D1 to burn onto a cup using Lightburn the laser head hardly moves and laser does not fire. Do you offer phone support or another method faster then this forum? I am about to loose my mind! LOL

This is a substantially different subject than firmware updating.

Can I confirm that you have or have not yet attempted the firmware update?

With LightBurn connected to the xTool D1, open the console window and type the following command:
$i
then press enter.

The ‘Dollar i’ command requests the firmware information.
Please copy and paste that into a reply here.

I see that you have another thread open about using the rotary and troubles with it. We’ve been asking questions in an attempt to confirm and guide some troubleshooting attempts.

I’ll join these to the previous thread once we confirm where you’re at in the process.

How about XCS? When you use XCS, will you meet the same issue?
