Okay I am new so let’s hope this is not user error. I am using Lightburn 1.0 on a mac M1. My Machine is using a Ruida KT332N over USB. I have created two layers. One with Text on it set to fill. The other with a shape set to line. Both have appropriate settings to cut and fill. Now if I have …

[image] Version 1.0 - MacOS issues with Ruida OS Specific I think I finally understand what’s happening on MacOS / Ruida / USB. Apple has a bug in the driver that talks to the FTDI chip - it’s ignoring what’s called ‘hardware flow control’. Similar to a conversation betw…

I have gone in and downgraded to 0.9.25 and am not experiencing the same issue.

I noticed something similar with version 1.0. It seems to start fine if the interval setting is 0.090 or 0.095 but other values including 0.100 don’t start. The software claims the file send successful and the machine run time starts incrementing, but the laser never starts. I’m using the Ruida 6…

If you’re using a Mac / Ruida / USB combination, please try this: [image] Version 1.0 - MacOS issues with Ruida OS Specific I believe I’ve got this sorted - I was finally able to get the issue to occur on a dev system with enough repeatability to be useful, and I think I’v…

Sorry about posting a duplicate issue. I will read closer next time to see if I can find similar issues. It got up into the mid to upper 90s today and it’s hot in the garage. If I can get out tonight I will give it a go.

Okay I downloaded and tried to use it but for some reason the direction keys seem to be disabled. The home button does work. [image]

The jog buttons not working was a great tip - I was able to reproduce this here, and found the cause. I’ve updated the pending patch release posted here: [image] Version 1.0 - MacOS issues with Ruida OS Specific I’ve updated the version at the link posted above. Can peop…

Sorry I was not feeling well last night so I did not get a chance to try it out. I have good news and bad news :-(. The good news is that with the version linked I was able to use the direction keys to jog the laser. Sadly when I tried to run my program again I hit start and the machine said run …

I’m having the same issue, M1, BigSur 13.3.1, Ruida over USB. I can’t send text, which is only around 124mm x 4mm in size, but can send smaller circles… I’ve downgraded to 0.9.23 and having the same issue. I’ve used and old prefs.ini file and deleted the current, still not working. Any suggestio…

My best suggestion for Mac users with Ruida devices has been, and continues to be, get a network adapter if you need one ($30) and connect the Mac to the Ruida with a network cable. There are no driver issues, it’s rock solid, and it’s twice as fast. It seems like each new update of MacOS breaks F…
