Well, finally info on XCS. I've got the D1 (not Pro) and as time has gone on, it worked fine with LightBurn. Then came the upgrades, and now LightBurn will not respond to the power settings. It burns very hot regardless of the settings. So, needless to say XCS is all I've got. It operates beautifully with Xtool's software, so the machine is not a issue. However, upgrades to firmware, etc....LightBurn just doesn't work. Xtool said on their site that sometimes LightBurn and the D1 WON"T work and it's an anomaly and they are not responsible. So, at any rate, I'm glad you have this video, it's very helpful and hope no one runs into this "anomaly" doesn't happen to them.

I'm sure you will get it. Essentially the whole machine has a coordinate system where the X goes left to right and the Y goes back to front. The (0,0) position of the system is at the HOME position in the back left corner. So if you wanted to burn at (x200, y200) that means the laser goes right 200mm (X position) and forward 200mm (Y position). That way if you had a grid burned onto a spoil board you would be able place something to engrave at that location and know exactly where the work is going to engrave. Hope the cleared it up a little bit and not just confused you more.

Thanks dude! Fantastic tutorial! Subscribing! :D

The "super long" is exactly like it sounds like, There are extensions you can purchase which makes the machine double long.

Hello Blair. Essentially in XCS I made a square an put it in the top left corner of the area to make the laser think it was using the entire workable area of the machine.

awesome video! thanks so much for sharing your insight. just got the files from your Etsy shop for this grid, am working with the D1 Pro 20W & I am having trouble with the limit switches with your file, goes across and down fine but when it gets to the bottom and goes back across it says its hitting a limit, but the laser module can physically move over about half a cm still. turned off limit switches & ran it anyways to see what it would do and it did jumbled the text in the bottom left corner a little bit that says "D1 Pro 20W" (two letters overlapped), but otherwise the grid seems in tact and okay with all the numbers and such.. any ideas on what may be triggering limit?

@BusterBeagle3D

Жыл бұрын

The limit switches do not allow you to reach the full extent of the advertised workable area on the D1 Pro. That is why there is that "READ ME FIRST" text file in the zip folder. It basically goes over turning off the limit switches and the laser crosshairs to be able to take full advantage of the the machine area and properly burn the grid.

Centering is a still an issue but I will run some tests tomorrow after I install the absolute coordinates file. When I “home” the laser in XCS it moves outside the scored grid from your file. Will this absolute coordinate resolve that? I thought about making some templates out of cardboard and run these tests. For example, I have a 10x16” cutting board where I need to center the monogram. I feel like if I can get alignment and centering down I will be well on my way Ryan. Any advice would be appreciated! Oh and I subscribed and told a few makers on IG to look at your channel.

There is also a video that goes over more about the grid file that you can find on my channel. If you have to center a monogram on anything and you are using XCS I would recommend using the grid to keep your piece square to the laser but place a small dot on the center of where you want to burn monogram on the actual piece. Then in XSC after you hit process place the GREEN DOT in the center of the image and then manually place the laser so the laser spot is right over that dot. Be sure to turn off the crosshairs and use the laser spot...It's much better. This is not using absolute coordinates but might be easier in the long run.

You have to convert that image into an outline to be able to cut it out. I first edit the image to remove the white areas and then use the outline button to create the outline. Then you can delete the original image and use that outline to cut.

Hi thank you so much for responding do I have to download creative space first or can I just put light burn on it alone

I love using my XTool D1 and want to engrave multiple pieces at once instead of one at a time. Do you have or know of a video covering this?

Hello. Why can’t you currently engrave multiple pieces at once? You should check out the video on my channel about absolute coordinates. If you burn a grid on a spoil board you could align the parts where you want and burn many things at the same time and know exactly where they will all line up. kzread.info/dash/bejne/dJ6p1KSnZLitiso.html

I noticed that the program on my screen does not show any material list as once before, any reason for this? Thanks

Thanks!

HI I have just purchased the D1 Pro and it seems the screen is a different layout in that I can't find an option to unite items oe whatever they call it, I also feel it is very restrictive is designing things, do you have any pointers? Thanks in advance

Hi. The newest version of the software has changed around quite a few things. I have been waiting for the software to get out of it's BETA phase before updating any videos on how it works. It's still somewhat restrictive in what you can do. If you really want the most feature rich software that you can use with the machine I would recommend checking out Lightburn. I have a whole video going over how to work in Lightburn with the D1 on my channel.
