**My setup:**

- LightBurn version: 2.0.02 (Windows 64-bit)

- License type: Pro (GCode, DSP, Galvo enabled)

- Galvo hardware: BJJCZ Laser Mark Control Board V4 [USB]

- Drivers: BJJCZ driver installed and confirmed working in Device Manager

**What I’ve tried:**

- Fully uninstalled and reinstalled LightBurn (cleaning `%appdata%\LightBurn` and `C:\Program Files\LightBurn`)
- Installed the EZCad2 driver during setup
- Ran LightBurn as administrator
- Verified license activation shows “GCode, DSP, Galvo” enabled
- Device Manager shows: `BJJCZ Device → Laser Mark Control Board V4 [USB]`
- Despite all this, the **“Galvo” option never appears under Devices → Create Manually.**

Don’t know that much about UV machines, but the EZCad2 driver will not work with Lightburn on my fiber, I’d suspect the same thing with a UV as the only difference is the laser source.

Might have to create yours manually, but you have to use the correct drivers.

It may be only listed as a JCZ device.

The last one is the controller. Might not say galvo.
