LightBurn loader 1.0 (new) - New plugin to convert LightBurn

[cseyler]

Hi,

I've attached a gc created with lightburn for a Marlin device.
By using this device, it is possible to export the laser power. The device (and the gcode) uses m106 S0 to turn off the laser and M106 Sxxx (from 0 to 255) to turn on the laser with a specific power.

I assumed that the plugin will convert this file by replacing m106 S0 by M11 and M106 Sxx by M10 Qxx.
But the plugin just remove the S paramter behind the M106

AM i missing something ?

The LightBurn Loader is written for "GRBL-M3" style codes. Generate the g-code for this output with the S set to 0..255.

Ok thanks, I tried with GRBL instead of GRBL-M3 ... with M3, it works fine

Hi,

I've tested your loader on a simple file but it set the laser power to 800 (80% in lightburn).
Using the scale option (0 to 255) doesn't change anything ...

See the image attached

Could someone help me I can't manage to convert a photo that I have loaded in lightburn into gcode
that I can load in Uccnc lightburn plugin.
All I keep getting is a blue screen and I can't see anything. What am I doing wrong now????

This is only what i get.
I have try what i can but only the blue horizontal lines.

I hope that anyone can help me with a step by step how to do it.

thats because uccnc shows the PATH, not laser intensity

[andre99]

Normal you see the photo there and now only lines. Further wen i zoom in then there are only lines.
I test it and it gives only horizontal lines in full power.

You can only see the picture when you use the Laser Engraver plugin.

Lightbuirn generates a gcaode, slightly modified by the lightburn plugin. But it remains toolpath (blue line).
