@nottingham82
Thank you for the video. I should be able to work with that. It may take a bit of time, but I should be able to do it. I really appreciate your help.

Is there any videos on assembling the eleks units.
I purchased the Eleksmaker Ekecsdraw 2500mw unit.

Load the DXF in T2Laser and it "writes" perfectly.

@Douane said in lx-nano.328p.20150626.hex where do i get it?:

@ThothLoki

yes i do have manaSE nano

benbox old and has no support, that why you dont need that hex file

eleksmaker have newer software, 3.1 is most current

I bought the absolute cheapest all in one pc for t2 since its in the garage and it runs just fine.

@Anthony-Tata said in I'm gettin crazy with this bug!!! Please help me!!:

I tried to regulate the power from the screw, but it not changes. Stil 0,4 v

Can i try to edit the config file on arduino??

I'm working on a ElesMaker Mana SE

Laserweb have to do with eleksmaker. You should ask laserweb forum about edit of config.h

Problems with your machine look like mechanical problem.

@Anatoly thanks for ur feedback

A lot more QC issues keep getting reported, whether the rods not being tapped or wrong screws etc. I know you are working on new machines but if you don't maintain quality people will go elsewhere.

A K40 CO2 is around 2X price and will cut in one pass (easily if you add air assist and a honeycomb bed).

I would use Velocity mode as recommended, with the older non-TTL 2 wire laser it produces excellent results.

@grom If the MOSFET is getting hot you probably need to use a different PWM frequency, likely it isn't being completely biased and that generates heat.

I have mine on top of a glass top computer desk but the desk it's self seams to shake a little. Speed wise I use around 1000

UPDATE I just got it working.
Somehow the usb connector did not connect well so I put it in the connector halfway. Then I selected the Laser Engraver in Elekscam. And clicked on the Rst ROM button. After that it works perfectly fine now.

Thanks. Yes, I changed out the cable and it worked!

Hi Zax,

Thank you for the reply.

I know it isn't a true 15W but as that's how it's described I thought I'd do the same to keep in line with the seller description. Thank you for saying as if it wasn't something I knew I would have liked to have known.

I've tried grounding the connection but still get the same result mores the pity. I'll open a case but I'd still like to know if anyone sells a replacement driver board as having one on the shelf is never a bad thing.

Cheers
Andy

That's some patience and skill.

The estimation in T2Laser is pretty close with my firmware and defaults, but if you change Grbl parameters there will be some error.

reinstall usb driver. Try replacing usb cable.

The EleksCAM cant dealing with complex svg files . if you want to deal with complex svg files, you can try this out:

@eb5agv said in EleksLaser A3 Pro 2500mW laser power control:

Hi all,

I have recently built my Kit. It worked flawlessly on first attempt. But it seems I can't control the laser power, as it works always at full power regardless of the setting of the ON/OFF and WEAK parameters. Am I doing anything wrong?. Thanks!

Did you read wiki pages on laser? Laser power not control with ON/OFF or WEAK. Laser power controlled in SETTING

@mbellini Perhaps I don't understand what you are doing, but PWM frequency is set by the firmware so presumably you are compiling Grbl?

If so, the default 1/64 prescaler -> 0.98kHz is good.
