Lightburn laser power settings

Here we solve the problem of correct adjustment of the laser power. The value of the parameter “Max spindle speed (RPM), S-Value max ($ 30)” is responsible for the “number of steps” from 0 to 100% power. The higher the value, the more precise the power can be set.

The main thing is that this value is the same both in the controller settings and in the LightBurn settings, otherwise, when setting 100% power, the laser can work, for example, at 60% (in general, not at the power that was set).

This is checked and corrected as follows:
Naturally, everything is done with the connected machine.
Open the controller settings in LightBurn: “Edit -> Machine Settings”
Press the “Read” button to load the controller settings
We look at the “Max spindle speed (RPM), S-Value max ($ 30)” parameter, change its value if necessary
Press the “Write” button to save the settings in the controller
Click the “OK” button
Open the LightBurn settings: “Edit -> Device Settings”
We look at the value of the “S-value max” parameter. If it does not match what is in the controller, we change it
Click the “OK” button

Open the machine settings “Edit -> Machine Settings”

In the window that opens, click “Read” to read the settings. Check the “Max spindle speed (RPM), S-Value max ($ 30)” parameter. It should be equal to 1000. If it has a different value, change it to 1000 and click the “Write” button and the “OK” button
