What did I miss , origin issues MKS dlc32

Im going to digg into some reading ASAP but anyone know where i boofed this up at , i homed , set my origin , framed it looked a little off not bad , fired and this is what i got lol. Did the negative values break it ? should i have cropped it then centered to my work ?

Also I uploaded the filed the file to SD because the laser is in the garage , and I’m not sure about Tibbo vsp yet , it would crash using lasergrbl

when it’s finished, click the Preview icon along the top row. It looks like a monitor on a stand.

there’s a switch at the bottom of the preview window that says 'Show Traversal moves, make sure that’s on and there’s some red around your art.

If the image has stray dots they’ll show up on preview. then you’ll know if you need to crop it or take other actions.

Thanks for the reply, thats all good info for me ! I found out my main issue was the origin I set was from MKS screen, so my frame was right but the gcode was for lightburns origin + my offset i gave it from the MKS. I just need to either get a pc near it for usb do everything on lightburn OR get a wifi connection that is stable , maybe switch to fluidnc. I re ran the project got it right now im digging into how to setup my work flow best so this doesn’t happen again LOL

After figuring out my origin situation which was user error I grabbed another piece of wood added some lettering , and fired . A new problem arises, I have not seen this issue with lasergrbl using although this is the 3rd burn on this machine over a few seconds.

After some research I might have done a few things wrong, constant power was not selected I tried a greyscale on carboard which came out great right before never switched it back, my min laser power is 0% and I know this laser has issues with 0% for off vs using a low PWM signal like .25% for off from testing it on my 3d printer with klipper 0% wigged the driver out ?, I’m going to run some tests in the morning but I think again user error :slight_smile:
