Ebay Laser Engraver help
-
I recently purchased this monster off Ebay.
It came with no instructions or branding to know what firmware to install.
I downloaded and installed T2laser. After installing CH341ser & Grbl 1.1e we were up and running. Everything test out when testing the laser and stepper motors.
I load up a test 10mm square and hit engrave frame, Boom laser comes and graves the outline no problem.
Now when i send the gcode the laser only flashes, stepper moves only slightly and stops and read the following:
Sending complete ( 13 lines in 5 secs )
But nothing happens except a lil pin hole laser mark.
Any ideas?

@azninja250 Power supply problem perhaps?

hmmm, But it works perfect when it burns the frame around the design with the laser on in the T2laser software.. Only when i send gcode does it act all weird.. 0.o

@azninja250 The frame uses your manual laser power value, does that match what you are using in the G-code?
If so, they are essentially the same except the frame doesn't move X & Y together which is why I suspected the power supply.
You can unplug the laser and see if the machine works then, if not, it's something else.
Does the simulation "view" look correct?
