Hi everyone,
I’m hoping someone can help! I have an OMTech 50W Galvo Fiber Laser that I just connected to LightBurn. I’m struggling to get any successful framing or engraving going. Here’s what’s happening:
- Laser fires only when actually starting a job (not during framing).
- When I try to frame, nothing moves or frames properly at all.
- Move panel is not active — I cannot manually move the laser head.
- I’ve checked emergency stop, start/pause/mark delays, red dot offset, and galvo config, but something still seems off.
- Settings: Galvo 2 = X axis (based on sticker on machine), Galvo 1 = Y axis.
- Frame speed and settings are entered, but no movement happens when trying to frame.
I feel like I’m missing a setup step or a critical setting somewhere. Could someone walk me through what else I should check? Maybe my basic galvo settings, red dot offset settings, or delays need correcting?
I would greatly appreciate any advice — thank you so much in advance!
