After trying to change the setting in console, it would allow me to change the settings, but they would not stay that way. I have read that xtool will not allow you to adjust console settings. Soooooo no change at all
Don´t try that, my idea is if you reinstall the firmware with XCS, maybe it will “install” with X=430 Y=400.
let me try that
I was able to get the firmware updated via developer mode, but the values in console did not change. Still $130=432 $131=406
You have to contact XTool, for a correct procedure to change those values.
Sorry.
No apologies! I greatly appreciate your help!
And if you try to adapt the Lightburn to X and Y, then check the center and make sure the laser doesn’t hit the rails.
In the device I sent you, try changing the height and width values.
And check if the center is dead center.
same result
i just ran same test in XCS and got the exact same result so it appears to be hardware related and not software like i thought.
But if you home the laser and jog the laser head to X=432 does it stop near the rail or does it hit the rail?
It stops near it, it does not hit the rail
With the device I sent you set width to 432 and height to 406 then Restart Lightburn and test the file below.
The file below is 2 crossed lines locked at 216x203 set to not frame, use it as a reference point for your workspace center.
Grid_center_432x406.lbrn2 (3.2 KB)
Sorry for the delayed response. Work has been kicking my butt lately.
I tried loading what you sent me, but it says your version is 1.7.00 mine is 1.603 and it says I have the most recent version. Also, I sent a ticket into xtool and they had me update my firmware and now, when I test, everything frames fine but it does the job right above the area I just framed. Like there’s an invisible piece above the job I just framed, and the software decides to do that instead of what I’m doing.
Ok, I got a warning about your file but loaded it anyway and it worked. I placed my “test” x directly over your crosshair and I got the same result again.
Type $$ and check if your laser $130 and $131 changed with the update.
Also try adjusting your pointer laser offset (both x and y).
Always click OK and then restart Lightburn after making changes to settings.
$130=432.000
$131=406
Laser Offset try X = -15 or -14 or -13 or change to other values and see if that works for you. To be safe click ok and restart Lightburn before testing.
I´m running out of ideas
