Can't get commands to work for JTech laser

X-Carve Troubleshooting

Since you are using PicSender, let me help you with your settings. If you haven’t upgraded to PicSender 2.7.9, now is a good time to do it.

Put these files, which are edited to fit your system, in the following directory: (over write the ones that are there)
C:\ProgramData\PicGRBL
Laser.txt (1009 Bytes)
Spindle.txt (1.1 KB)

  1. Launch PicSender, Press the “Open” button
  2. press the gold “GRBL” button at the top of the screen
  3. check “Use Auto Settings”
  4. press the gold “Return” button at the top of the screen

Now you are set up so that you can switch between laser and spindle with optimized settings for each task by just selecting the appropriate button on the startup page (either “spindle” or “laser”).

If you use a different sender program, other than PicSender, make sure that you leave PicSender with the spindle/laser selection set up for the job you are going to do next.
