Need help w/ Xtool D1 pro Origin

[TinaB (Tina Baird)]

i am a total newbie to this i have a xtool d1pro 5w. i have just installed lightburn and the origin is in the back left corner of the machine and i cannot get it to move to the front left corner of the machine and the y axis is going in the wrong direction and so are the move buttons. x positive to the right, y positive to me should be going away from you, z positive is up. when i tell machine to go home it goes to back left corner but machine shows dot on front left

I have the same problem. Not able to move the origin to the front left corner. The same xTool D1 Pro 5w. Purchased the 40w laser, but I don’t expect anything will change. Appreciate any suggestions the community has!

This is relevant:

Laser cutting upside down

Your origin is likely setup incorrectly. Go to Edit->Device Settings and set Origin to top-left for your laser. However, this implies that you didn’t use the .lbdev configuration files provided by xTool. Suggest you follow the setup guide here: Use LightBurn to Operate xTool D1 Pro – xTool

Thank you berainlb! I did use the .lbdev config file, but still cannot move the Origin to bottom left. Is the origin set to Left Top corner only, or can be moved (I prefer it on Left Lower Corner)? Thank you!

There’s no easy way to change this for the xTool lasers as xTool lock out any configuration changes.
