Laser turns on but doesn't engrave

got my longer b1 set up, using gbrl with windows11, laser moves and homes, goes to origin, laser light comes on but it doesn’t burn, moves back and forth with laser light on ,but nothing burns

In consol window type $$ then enter.
Is $30 value the same as S value max in device settings?

thanks for reply, both those settings are what u said. finally got it to engrave but only on when constant power is turned on, 13000 at 20 % power, engraves good. But never had to use constant power on my ten watts longer. can’t get it to cut at all even with constant power on. tried 400 speeds at 100% power and just Bad looking engrave. must be another setting that’s off. Tried to reinstall but still same. fyi. not most computer literate

I think i figured out my issue, speed setting was at inches per min. not mm/ min. just reset that and cut a piece of 3mm wood. thanks for your info Tho. this a great place to have people like yourself and others offer help. thanks again
