  @PhotonPhil Remove the Nano from the controller board and see if it will flash the firmware disconnected. If so you most likely have a bad capacitor, and can either replace it or get a new board. If the Nano doesn't work disconnected then it's most likely lost the bootloader, Z would probably know if that's what causes D4 to flash. I don't know if their Nano's have the ICSP connector to reflash them, most clone Nano's do.

  ok looking at your diagram this is what you should expect.

  VCC - accepts a 5 volt signal to turn the laser on and off.

  Gnd - ground

  PWM - 12 volt power

  So if you apply 12 volt to pwm, ground to ground, and 5volt to PWM you should get 100% power

  If you apply 12 volt to pwm, ground to gnd, and 0 volt to pwm you should get 0% power

  If you apply 12 volt pwm, ground to gnd, and 2.5 volt to pwm you should get 50% power

  having the white button pressed with 12volt pwm and a ground applied should turn on the laser in low power mode event without anyting at pwm

  .... I could be wrong but that is how it is supposed to work.

  Solved!!
  Two things are important.
  1 Start software as administrator.
  2 Change decimal to point instead of a comma ( Go to setting. Region & language. Extra settings. Change numbers. Advanced settings).

  Thank you for all replies.

  My laser power is 2500mw.

  I never tried to cut in low speed so I guess it doesn't matter what material I tried.

  I will try as you said then will let you all know.

  Thank you

  assuming you arent using super hardwoods, I dont see your needs being a problem. However there will be a learning curve. If you want to go deep and not have scorching around the engraving you may need to use masking tape on the area, go slow, and blow air on it to be certain it doesnt get too hot and catch fire. The air assist as its called is not a stock feature. I use an air compressor but some people just use a little pc style fan. It depends on your needs. I think compressed air is best for removing ash so you can cut all the way through wood. That may be excessive for your needs.

  *** all connection use the laser connector ***

  12V AC/DC is the power input, and connects to the + and - pins on the laser connector.

  TTL is the TTL/PWM signal, one pin connects to the S pin on the laser connector (you may need to connect the other to the - pin which is actually a ground but usually not required)

  12V is the laser connector (goes to the laser diode), and I am not sure but GRN is probably the fan.

  Got any idea what voltage and polarity this unit expect to see on the pwm pin in the three pin connection and exactly what will be the response?

  A bit late in replying, but I put a post in the Eleksmill section on how to calibrate your steps. This method applies to just about any cnc device.
