Hi, I have a Monport 60W CO2 laser. I have the DSP version of Lightburn. It’s connected by USB cable. I can’t get Lightburn to recognize the laser. I was looking for a Lightburn profile like the one I used when I connected my Xtool D1. I thought it may be a driver issue, and I was going to install the version of RDworks that came with the machine. When I put the USB drive in the antivirus software said that there were several viruses in all the files. I did not install the software. I put in a support ticket with Monport, and they suggested that if I was “worried” about viruses, that I download RDworks directly from the company website. They did not address my question about a Lightburn profile for the laser. If you have any suggestions I would appreciate it. Thanks.
Install the FTDI driver from here:
VCP Drivers - FTDI (ftdichip.com)
Or reinstall LightBurn and choose the option to install the FTDI driver at the end of the installation.
Alternatively, connect the controller through Ethernet which doesn’t require a separate driver.
Ethernet Connection (Ruida) - LightBurn Software Documentation
There is no .lbdev profile provided for DSP controllers that I’ve seen.
My 60W Monport is connected via Ethernet… never had a glitch or problem.
Ethernet gets my vote… too much going on in the USB side of things… too many places for errors and disconnects.

I was looking for a .lbdev profile. Thank you for letting me know it is not necessary. I’m surprised that when Monport responded they did not indicate that. I really appreciate your help. Thank you!
I will try connecting via ethernet. Thanks for your help.
