Xtool S1 issue with Ligntburn

[Sam90 (Sam)]

Hi all,
I doon’t know if someone had the same issue like me, I have the Xtool S1, and I can’t engrave or cut a circle with 300mm of diameter. On the buttom working area, the laser don’t cut curved, but a line (see photos)

Are you using the Lightburn device type or the one from xTools?
You need to use the LB one.

Setting up xTool S1 with new xTool device type in LB 1.7 and Beyond

This device type does not support the xTool F1 or P2. It does not support ANY network device at this time You can download LightBurn from here: Download / Trial – LightBurn Software In LightBurn 1.7.00, we have added native support for xTool Devices that use serial communication like the D1, D1 Pro, and S1. This bypasses their GRBL compatibility layer and has resolved some of the issues we have seen with these machines like making triangles when rectangles are expected, and moves some function…

I’m using the LB provided setting file.

Here is an example:

I tried to engrave a line at Y(317mm) position, but the laser, engraved it before.

Another test:

You might not be able to. Those flat spots on the bottom are firmware limiting the travel. The 40w doesn’t have a full 12" of travel on Y because of the size of the module.

I reduced my Y to 295mm on the working area.
