Laser is not turning off when changing paths

[Olicer (OliverGutiérrez)]

I want to cut a complex vector with holes inside but the laser is not turning off when changing paths and it is cutting the inside which I don’t want, any ideas of what I’m doing wrong??

What kind of laser do you have? Your profile just says “grbl” which is not a type or brand of laser.

but the laser is not turning off when changing paths

If you are asking about the laser still burning when traversing to the next shape to be processed, share your grbl settings and we can take a look.

This is worth review,

Laser not turning off between cuts? (burning during travel moves)

If you have a GRBL device, and your laser is still on when moving between shapes, like this: [image] It most likely means you are using GRBL 1.1f or later, but do not have the controller in Laser Mode. Fix this by typing $32=1 in the Console window and pressing enter If you have a Ruida or other DSP controller and are seeing this happen, it is most likely a dying high-voltage power supply unit (PSU). The drive circuit that turns the laser power off and on tends to go first, before the part …

Thanks that solve my problem,I’ve been looking for a solution like this one by 3 months. you don’t know what it meanest me, I don’t think I can help you with any issue related to laser cut but if you ever have a problem or need any relate to 3d printing let me know
