Lightburn with xTool S1

In general, the xtool S1 works quite well with Lightburn. However, I would like to be able to turn on the vent fan after a job has been completed and let it run for awhile. Is there a macro I can send from Lightburn to turn the S1 vent fan ON?

I turns out that the Fan timeout in xTool’s software is non volatile. If you set the timeout to be anything up to 600 seconds in xTool’s software, then exit, this time appears to be burned into the fan controller’s memory and remains even after the machine is turned OFF - at least on my S1. Then, in Lightburn, using small magnets to keep the S1 enabled after the lid is raised, the fan will continue to run for the duration of the time set. without the magnets, the fan will run until the lid is raised.
