Trying to do a photo but keep getting this>>>>>

@thomas75 This is an error message from your machine, not a software issue. There are a few common causes:
Power savings on the computer and/or USB port has not been disabled and the driver is going to sleep.
Grbl is crashing due to memory faults (over heating of the Nano clone, common with the Eleks Nano as it uses a fake microcontroller).
Memory faults due to bad Nano memory (also common with the Eleks Nano's)
Electrical noise (poor grounding of the machine / PC)
Poor quality USB cable (no baluns for noise suppression)In the advanced settings there's a checkbox called Simple Streaming, enabled that and see if it helps. This does not use the memory on the Nano so would rule out that as the issue, it won't completely fix the problem but should go longer before erroring. You could also ignore the errors but I don't recommend that as it could stop with the laser on full power.

@Zax Why would it only happen when doing a photo and not engraving other things? I will give it a try.
Thanks

@thomas75 If the problem is memory / temperature then it is usually time based, perhaps the photo is larger or more complex?
