Lightburn, Mintion LaserCam, and xTool D1 Pro setup and integration

I have an xTool D1 Pro and just acquired a Mintion LaserCam. Have it connected via wifi but the instructions wanted me to change the GRBL controller to Wifi (Ethernet) instead of USB (direct connect to computer). Only now, the laser engraver won’t work and I get an error saying “can’t send data to engraver, it may be paused”.

The cabling goes from the D1 Pro to the Mintion Lasercam and then from the Mintion Lasercam to the laptop (also has a power cable for the Lasercam.

So frustrated… can anyone help?

I do not do cameras, but I am pretty sure the camera must be plugged into the PC (another COM port), just like the Laser.

You put the camera between the PC and the Laser. That would explain why the laser is not working.
