Or, I have a Ortur laser master 3… I’m running Lightburn with windows 8.1 (64) And not getting anywhere…
I spent a little time in lightburn why waiting for the lasier to arrive So know a LITTLE in light burn
Ortur is getting power, lighs are flashing, and at times It seams to be doing the home, move …
Using USB cable… I have tryed everyway you could think of to get things talking … power on, power off, reset, ortur on the loaf lightburn, load lightburn then ortur on… and any mix of that you can think off…
If you go up to toolbar and click safe remove USB/Disks It show the Ortur there, but try find my laser in lightburn, and it comes up with nothinhg…
I have tryed all the USB plugs… swaped around
I have a $1000 paperweight… and no clue as to what to do next…

Thanks For that… Should have added that to start… zadig and I are old friends have downloaded a few times and re-installing was part of my playing around
I have been over the manual a few time, taking care to read all… thanks
Does a port get created for the laser in Device Manager? If you don’t get a USB Serial port there is no chance LightBurn will ever work. So first order of business is to ensure that a port is created.
If Find My Laser doesn’t detect the laser try setting it up manually.
GRBL (not any other variant)
Serial/USB
400x400
front-left (bottom-left) origin
Enable Auto-home on startup
After the device is created, make sure that COM3 is selected in the Port selection field in Laser window. If the laser doesn’t connect immediately then right-click Devices button to force reconnect.
Assuming all goes well after that I suggest you enable “G-code clustering” in Edit->Device Settings. Also make sure that S Value Max is set to 1000 there.
