hello, new here. Ive switched from using EZcad2 and bought lightburn. before I could just hit f1 and it would show a red square on table that i could align part to. In lightburn when i hit “frame” it bring up a window with 3 frame options. I can hear the laser whirring around when the window is…

This is my controller BJJCZ USBLMCV4… I’m assuming you can hear the galvo, but no laser…? focus is critical with these, the shorter the lens the more precision required likely that you have a Raycus or JPT source… I’d try changing the source in the device settings to something other than IPG_… D…

hello, thank you for reply, i just checked and confirmed my controller in device manager. identical to yours and i hit update driver. says im currently using best driver you are correct, i hear it but no visual. It engraves with no issue, i just cant align or see visual size before sending ive t…

[image] Dragiin: tried all 4 raycus, ipg_ylp, ipg_ylpm, and JPT do you know what is in the machine? Is it a MOPA or q-switch? Do you have a link to the machine for me to read? What I’m understanding is that it will lase, but there is no red outline for part alignment…? This is a red dot …

This is a Raycus source, so I’d set the fiber type to Raycus. You probably won’t have control over the q-pulse, but it should outline. This is in the advertisement link you posted … [image] :smile_cat:

thank you, -I have set it to raycus and messed with settings after with no success. -I looked everywhere for something to tell me if its mopa or q-switch but didn’t find anything. -it does work with ezcad2 I will send email to support.

If the link you sent me was accurate, then the laser source is a Raycus… For the price on the add, I doubt it’s a mopa model. If you imported the configuration file that was shipped with it, it should have all this set up… [image] Dragiin: markcfg7 file provided with ezcad2 I’d reload this…

Hello, I am having this same issue, I’m running lightburn on ubuntu jammy, using EZcad will fire the red dot. With lightburn I can hear the red dot moving but not turning on. I have a Omtech 30w fiber laser (FM6969-30S) JCZ board, here are the device settings: [Screenshot from 2023-07-18 18-46-41…

If it’s just the framing red laser might read this forum. The red dot port might need to be configured. [image] Galvo no frame showing Galvo Hi , Trying to set up my galvo , I am unable to see a frame with previewing the engraving . When I switched back to Ezcad it’s the…
