Hi.
New to this, but has used industrial lasers before. Setting up a Omtech K40+ for a friend. I’ve been through the mirror alignment, laser fires no problems. In Lightburn I created a part, set the layer, and a speed of 30 and power of 50%, just for a test. When I click Start, the gantry goes through the motions, and I can see the laser signal indicator on the “Laser Currency” change state, but no current, and can confirm the tube isnt firing.
What should I be looking for? As far as I can tell everything is set up correctly and enabled, but first time using this software so may be missing the obvious.
Thanks
Glenn
OK, fixed it. I discovered there is another interlock switch at the back of the slide out tray. This wasn’t staying closed, if I pushed ther tray in, it would pop out 1mm and this was enough to open the interlock, and no laser. Will make a modification.
