Laser does not work but home and origin works

[PeteD2945 (Peter Denis)]

I have a Snapmaker 2.0 and have been using lightburn. Updated lightburn and firmware and now it no longer works. It goes home and you can set and go to origin but will not move after hitting start. I am thinking about uninstalling then reinstalling lightburn but I misplaced my license and I am worried if I do uninstall I wont be able to get into lightburn. I could use some help with this issue. My license still has 2 months to go.

I will keep looking, but i will ping @JohnJohn that might be able to guide you through faster.

But he is also right that rotary will not work. There is special logic written specifically for Snapmaker devices and cu…

Snapmaker Rotary Axis - Any comments from the LB developers?

Do you mean the Version 1.4.02 and it came in the final of the 1.4.03??? I tested the official v1.4.03, same bug… The Y-Axis moves by exactly the value set under diameter. If i press the test button in the rotary settings, this happend [Snapmaker Rotary error]

Updated lightburn and firmware and now it no longer works.

Regrettably, this is expected with their most recent firmware change.
If you roll the Snapmaker firmware back from the most recent to the one immediately before, you may be in fairly good shape.

Thanks bookmarked this.
Seems there’s an uptick in snapmaker requests, maybe a pinned thing on the announcements?
