Laserhead not moving after "Start"

I have an XTool D1 Pro 20W laser. I am very new to the game, so I imagine this is completely user error. I put in my shape that I want to cut.

  • When I open Lightburn, it goes to Home.
  • I did the framing and it works just fine.
  • My preview looks wonderful.
  • I press Start
  • Laser goes home and stays there
    I’ve been googling for days - and I came across a post where they had the same problem and it was corrected by disabling a setting. I verified and my setting was already disabled.

Based on those forums/messages, the following were screenshots that were requested by the other user.

I have another screenshot but since I am a new user am limited to 4 imbedded images. I will try to add to additional comment below.

I do have a youtube video as well where it did this previously when I inadvertently did not install my laser properly using the file provided by XTool. After I did that, I was able to do a material test (Sort of). When doing that, the material test framed, then started and midway through just stopped. I tried multiple times, shut the computer down and I am trying again today with another fail.

Any help would be fantastic.

Start by disabling beginner mode

Then enable Show all

and Enable DTR

By the way you didn´t created your laser by importing a .lbdev file with proper Scanning offsets, did you?
