Rest in Peace. Your helpful advice, ideas, & videos will be greatly missed.

Thank you for the video. Was wondering how people were able to fire the laser for alignment.

Thanks for this! And for the note about pressing shift!

Thank you so much, friend! I am very grateful to you!

Thank you for that I had it before but I had to reboot the computer and I lost that function. How do I make the laser do a circle for my lineup on a round object versus the square pattern. Because when I do it with the square option, what does just a box? It's hard to line up around coaster to see if it's going to line up in the right spot can be done.

hi friend, I have a question I have a neje master 2 I use LightBurn for but I get a message Homing error: 5 Homing cycle is not enabled in your Grbl settings. what could it be?

Thanks!

In version 1.2.04 holding shift is no longer actual, as it has a "Laser on when framing" switch below "Enable fire button" switch. You can turn it on once and for all.

I haven't tried lightBurn yet but I plan to. I'm still using LaserGRBL and to do the same thing I created a custom button. Type: Two State Button GCode: M3 S1 GCode2 M5 Tool Tip: Toggle Laser Low Power Enabled: Idle.

Thanks for the tip but LightBurn is more then worth the money give is a shot as it pointed out already it has a free trial

Dumb question but all of the sides windows closed on light burn on me how do I re open them?

Good Morning, I added the fire button and was using it but now it has stopped working and won't let me adjust the power to this either. Can you please help me to get this working?

I just downloaded the trial version yesterday. I spent most of the day reading the files on how to use it. That out of the way, I have a 3018 pro, I have had it for three months and have not been able to do anything with it. So it was reconmended to try this software. Now I can not get it to fire my laser. I know the grbl board is good, the connection wires are good. I have tested them. I took the laser off on tested it, it works (a shot of blue light came out.) I am at a lose, any ideas for my next step?

You need to make sure your correctly connecting the laser to the PWM output of the GRBL board, an you also need to ensure your sending and "S" with the M code too.

I stumbled a bit about the lack of the "Move" tab here first. If you can't see it, enable it in the "Window" menu first.

Great! This is what i was looking for! Thank you

Is there anyone on here that can help me set my laser up on my Mac I am having constant problems trying to get it to work. when I want to start it says that its paused and I can not seem to get anything to work. Please help thank you.

There is two frame options, button with square and button with circle, square works fine but circle doesn't do anything.. im also pressing shift

I tried this once and it worked fine, I came back a day later, no changes and it would not work again even after going thru the steps once more... any thoughts as to why.. Thanks

At some point, Lightburn added another toggle on the device settings. Now, below the "Enable laser fire button" toggle, there is a "Laser on when framing" toggle. Change that to green and the laser will work when you click the frame buttons.

why it turns off after few seconds?

After pressing the FIRE button, it gives an error 9.

LightBurn is the best thing since sliced...ANYTHING!!!!! lol
