After stopping an engraving job as the the straight lines was being engraved in a zig zag fashion in one spot, I restarted the engraving but the laser beam did not come on and the laser did not move to the designated design.location. A hissing sound was heard only. I checked all the connections (all OK) and the design in lightburn was proper and did not have the zig zag in the design.
Unclear if the problem is specific as mid engrave or happens on all new engraves from that point on?
When you try a fire command, does fan and beam Leds on top of the laser light up?
When I use the fire command the laser fires but the lights on the top of the laser do not come on but the connection lights do and I can move the laser with the (set position icon) fire the laser, turn the fire mode off, home the laser but the hissing continues after homing. If I try to engrave the image the laser does not move . Could it be my usb connection cord to the computer. I use lightburn.
sounding like a power adapter issue
Do you have another 12v power adpater you coudl try
?
Where is the hissing sound coming from?
I have corrected my problem. I found that data was not being sent to the laser as the connection between the computer and laser was not working properly so I replaced it.
Everything is functioning perfectly now.
