LightBurn setup before I have the machine?

[martinlaser (Martin)]

I got LB licensed and installed. I’d like to play with it. My machine (xTool D1) does not arrive for about a week. LB won’t run unless it is setup with a machine. How do I set it up for the D1 without having it connected to the computer?

Thanks.

There’s actually a section for this in the documentation:
Adding a Laser - LightBurn Software Documentation

In your case xTool offers a .lbdev configuration file that you can import to configure your device.

You can find it in this link along with a video about basic setup:
How to Configure xTool D1 LightBurn Software – xTool

Additionally, LightBurn created a Youtube video that talks about use of xTool D1 in LightBurn. Worth a watch to get yourself familiar with its operation.

I’ll go read through the documentation (I thought I could cheat, but, no) and watch that video before doing anything else.

Thank you.
