Snapmaker 350T not recognised by lightburn

[calisto1951 (steve Charles lynn)]

I have just tried to configure Lightburn to my Machine. I have connected the serial Usb cable from the computer to the controller.
I checked the serial CH340 port and it tells me its connected to COM3 and is working fine.
Laser says its ready but nothing is happening
In the help menu there is a function on data capture for a support ticket. But i am not sure how to do that.
I was originally testing the trial without connecting to a machine.
When I upgraded I tried to connect to the machine and failed.
Is there any mileage in starting from scratch an doing a fresh install?
When i go to device in Lightburn it fails to find my device.
I select Marlin as the only option available
lightburn tells me its connected COM3 and using Marlin

When you click it there’s a little message that pops up and says that the support data was copied to your clipboard. You compose an email, click on the main area and click paste or (CTRL V) and send the email to Support@LightBurnsoftware.com

You can also paste it into a reply here and LightBurn Staff can figure out some of the machine settings from it.

This may be worth review:

Snapmaker 2.0 A350 Setup Guide

Hi all, As suggested by @jlropes here is rough guide which I hope will help other users to get their Snapmaker 2.0’s working with Lightburn Software. First steps with a freshly powered on SM2 is to use the calibration method in the controller taking into account the material thickness and the automated focusing and that sets a focus height that’s referenced in machine Z co-ordinate. Then set working co-ordinates X&Y to suit and that then refers to your bottom left reference in Lightburn. By d…

I am still struggling Laser only operates by a direct command M3 P100. If I set P20 Laser will only work at 20% regardless of the setting in the assigned layer. Not familiar with Gcode so not sure what to do
