With LightBurn I do not have the full power of the laser

Are there people here who operate the Ender-3 S1Pro with Laser Module?

In my opinion the Creality software very limited, so I tryed the software LightBurn. However, I have noticed that the laser no longer lasers at 100% power with LightBurn. But I have set the power to 100%.
I also noticed that the gcode is different (value LightBurn “255” instead of CrealityPrint “98”).

Does anyone also use LightBurn and has a solution or even a profile for me?

The printer is not connected. I laser via the gcode via SD card.

Did you setup lightburn/machine to the same settings?

Double check the installation instructions for Lightburn grbl setup.

This is usually due to the incorrect $30, $31 and $32 and the associated ‘S-value max’ in the device settings…

Good luck

Got the solution. Have now increased the S-value max from 255 to 1000 and I now have 100% power.

Great…

If that’s the solution, mark the thread ‘solved’…

Take care … have fun
