This one Video has changed my life... I've been fighting my XTool D1 for months.... Thank you so much for showing me how to get this thing to play nice. I can now put my laser head Exactly where I want it and repeat all my projects! Cheers
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I Did my first ever test cut an hour ago with LB. Wish I had a look at your video before that ... but now I understand the different options. Thanks again.
New to Lightburn and seeing my laser unit travel up across my board when I set all to zero confused the hell out of me..... Until I watched this, I didn't know Lightburn read the laser head position as zero when booting up - This was so helpful... Thank you..
What a great video. Simply explained , easy to understand and at the right pace for a new user to laser engraving. Thank you very much greatly appreciated.
The second I saw the headline of this video, I hulk smashed the like button, subscribed and rang the bell. I’m running an xTool D1 Pro 20 watt. I guess regardless of whatever engraver you’re running, all react the same way with Lightburn. I will be saving this video for future reference.
Thanks a million for this video. I am extremely new with this laser stuff but I am very interested in learning as much as I can. This will help me tremendously for when I go to line up my first job once I get that far. Now if I could only find a video on doing a job from start to finish.....lol.... It's hard when you really new and don't even know what kind of question to ask let alone searching for it... Thanks again.
Amazing!! We nearly had a laser machine out the window, becuase of the frustration this caused, especially wiht the homing! THis saved a lot of frustration, and of course, the need to buy a new machine. Great content! 💪💪
this really helped! my endstop cables came loose and i tought i would need to fix it, thankfully u made me realise i can manualy put in in position, thanks!
This was a huge help! Could you please do a video explaining how to set up multiple projects on the grid so they are processed one after the other. So if I were to place out 5 tiles with the same image on each tile once they were where i needed them to be I could start the burn and it would go until all five tiles were complete. That would be awesome .
This video explained a lot about what my machine sometimes does. very interesting. I only have one critique, the cursor is white and it makes it hard to follow, if you can change the color to green or red it would help a great deal. I had to stop and back up a number of times to catch where the cursor was going.
A good explanation of one of Lightburn's probably most asked questions "where the hell is my laser going to burn from" I actually have a couple of Inox rulers on the edge of my bed in X and Y which I have embedded and also find that useful for reference and I use a wooden square on the bed itself held in place by a couple of Neo magnets for repetitive work. Then pop the piece of wood in or plastic and away you go time after time. Works perfectly. I dont thing since sorting this out in my head a few years back have I used Absolute Coordinates once. Please also dont forget to use "set laser position" from the left hand side menu, this will help you set up the laser head as well and is forgotten a lot of the time.
@@jenngoldstein5941 if you click on the "set laser position icon on the left hand side of the screen, looks like an ice cream cone, then click on a place in the workspace the laser will automatically go to that place, its a very quick way to get the laser head where you want it. Faster than jogging.
Thanks so much for explaining this in a very clear manner! I can't understand why there is no way to set the 0,0 with a button but have to restart it after homing but this is UX :-). Great explanation made my day!
I have used the JTech laser on my shapeoko with some success. I was most impressed when I called Jtech and got the best customer services in my life- they helped me set this a up and use it. However, IO decided I needed a dedicated laser platform because the Jtech/Shapeoko system was hard to control power and speed or origin when using lightburn. This laser just gave me the bug to get more. I want to engrave door welcome mats and use a rotary for cubs and glass.
Extremely new here so I would ask that you SLOW down. The rapid fire explanations, coupled with the rapid cursor movements all over the board, makes for frequent rewinds to figure out how you did a certain thing. Great info, but for “101”, a trickle versus a torrent would help.
SUPER HELPFUL! I do the "Coaster" circular shape wood engraving, and I find it best to start engraving in the middle. The problem I kept running into was that I didnt set the coordinates and set origin. Thank you for this. You made me better!
My friend, all in peace? I want to congratulate you on your excellent work with this program. I am learning a lot. Crawling, but learning a lot. I wanted to know if you can clear my doubt? Here's the thing: every time I turn on my Atomstack A5 Pro, when it goes to the origin, it keeps hitting the sides of the steel frame. And it makes a huge noise, like it's straining the straps. The following message appears: "Homing ALARM:9 Homing failure. Could not find limit switch in search distance. Set to 1.5 * max_travel in search and 5 * thrust in locating phases." As I'm quite a beginner, I don't know how to solve this. Any light?
Great video. How about doing a video on how to do a large burn where you have to move the wood piece on the board to burn the second half of the image. Tips on aligning that board and best method of origin for this. How does framing play into something like this. My Atomstack X7 Pro has a burn size of 34" x 16", so if I burn an image the size of 46", how do I continue the burn and true alignment?
Great video. I have the elite woodworker and I bought the 24 watt jtech. I’m finding it a little confusing since I don’t connect directly to the elite with lightburn . When I change the home position in lightburn and I save the file it saves the position also? Thanks Jay Cheers Mark
Im confused… I am new to laser engraving/cutting, but have been 3D printing for several years. With 3D printing and using software like Simplify3D. With that software, i just plug in my bed dimensions and the software knows its bounds and where ever i place an object to be printed, it appears in the exact place every time.. I assumed software that is always highly recommended like Lightburn would be able to do the same… I assumed.. But seems like we have to do a lot of messing around and restarting the software, etc, just to get everything to sync up correctly. This video cleared up some things for me and some of it i must figured out only because after much trial and error, this was the only way to get what i needed. Figured i needed more time to get it set up right and it seems there is no “set up right”.. How i have been using it and some of the techniques discussed here are not just a work around, this is just how but works. I just don’t get it.. There isn’t much difference between 3D printing and Laser engraving but the software to do each is vastly different in the wrong places. I think 101, the bed dimensions and boundaries should almost be automatic and keep. If i place something in the software representation of my actual bed, it should appear when i hit go.. Not a series or restarts and homing and offsets.. My CR10 3D Printer and Simplify pretty much worked at the start.. Only issues i had to struggle with was prints sticking to the bed. But this issue is worse since its not an issue in 3D printing
Hello Sir.Thank you for sharing your experiences with us.I have a question for you , my laser don't know the own limits.How Can I teach the limits to my laser with lightburn programme .Any time I said go there the laser is trying to go over than own limits and there is happening bad voice.I worry about to burn my step motors.Could you please share a video to teaching laser's limits?
Thanks for the heart attack with that loud start, lol. It doesn't help that youtube always starts at full volume. Thanks for sharing, I was looking for this topic specifically.
Your explanation is very good, however, my version of Lightburn (1.6.03) is missing several buttons in the MOVE tab. Did they remove some of the buttons from previous versions?
Thank u good sir. I was wondering y my new laser ingraver was hitting the rails and miss alight my laser. Now I know. Good simple and short video. Thanks
Good info, though I'd recommend getting a new mic and checking the levels while recording as well as adjusting them in the video project before exporting to normalize the different audio clips. Some sections are very quiet and some are very loud and clipping which makes it difficult to hear what you're saying.
Thanks for the video. I was wondering if there’s any reason why my Laser isn’t home into the middle side position on my user origin? It continues to go back to the right hand corner. I’m using lightburn.
Great video ! Finally I learned a lot about Homing and other things about Origin settings ! I'm from Italy, but youe explanation is clear and easy to follow even for people out of USA! Can you tell me please exactly the name of your laser? Or a specific link. Thanks !! :-)
What engraver do you use? I like the fact that you can adjust the Z axis. How much was it? I would like to look into getting a CO2 engraver. What can you suggest for an economical engraver around $3,000?
Good day, great video. Hoping you can help me with something around this. I keep getting a Alarm Hard Limit - Y error in lightburn. Any insight into why I might be getting this and how to possibly correct it?
Hello and thank you for the video and also so many helpful tips below so thankful! Am I missing something, (learning) how can you get your text to print solid words instead of just the outline of the words? Thank you so so much
This was great and has help me. I do have an issue with my 36w Wizmaker and homing i just received my new machine and when i hit home it run to the front left corner but the limit switches does not seem to work properly. It go to home hits it and sit there and vibrates. Same thing happens at the origin limit switch. I have been in contact with both lightburn and Wizmaker support but have not got the help i need. Also i get an error message #9 can you help?
Whenever I press “framing”, my laser frames but leaves a framing line (burns into material). Is it supposed to do this? Is there a setting for the laser? My fire button percentage is currently 3%. I also use my focusing plates to give a distance between my laser and material. Any feedback would help. Thank you!
Hi, I was hoping I could talk you into increasing the size of your pointer just a bit and/or changing the color. I am visually impaired and I only have my laptop to watch your videos. Thanks! Marie Wood, AcryliWood Designs
Hi and thanks for this video! I'm using LightBurn 1.2.01 (on a GCode machine) but within the move window I can't see the "Fire" button. Why this? Another question that I have is: is it possible to "Set Finish Position" programmatically also if LightBurn isn't connected to the Laser (laser is powered off or offline) ?
Nice video thank you. When I restart my Lightburn it automatically homes the laser and still does not show as 0,0,0? is there a setting I need to change?
I have just started for some reason a rectangle of mine when it comes to do the cut it doesn't like a square and everything says up there on the top where you have your millimetres is correct but it's not cutting correct can you help? My laser is the Sculpfun S30 20w and I have LightBurn?
Hi My name is Donnie I have just bought a Longer B1 2 weeks ago everything was running fine. Today all of a sudden my machine wouldn't go home it went to the far right. my jog buttons are backwards if I push the right jog it goes left up it goes down. It just seems like every thing is backwards. I'm using lightburn software any help would be appreciated Thank you Donnie.
what do you think could be the issue with mine not homing itself. the y axis only moves to the front under absolute coordinates. and when i reinstall lightburn, it doesnt show all zeros. i have a Fox Alien Masuter 40cmx40cm.
Hello friend, how can I set the position of the machine? I have xTOOL D1 Pro and, I find it a bit complicated. The little time I am using my xTOOL but, I always use User Origin. Thanks
Using Absolute Coridanates and following your homing steps, my laser head returns to the same position every time: Y 586 X 205 despite setting it to X 00 & Y 00. This problem has only arisen lately as it always went back to Y 00 X 00. When I hit Home it then goes back to X 00 & Y 00 Don't know how to correct it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Hi thanks for video but got a issue I followed your steps but now when I press any jog nothing works but if I press right job all the axis move at maximum speed and don't stop until it hits limit switch?
Hi! I have a problem between Neje vs LightBurn with power. The power via Neje seems to be higher. Is there any additional laser setting in LightBurn? Thanks
I have my limit switches for x and y on the right front sides. When I click home everything works fine. But when I then start moving with the arrow keys in the move tab the x axis is inverted.. I'm so confused. I set the machine origin to the front right too. and restarted lightburn. but whenever I click frame then it hits the frame of my laser bc the x axis gets inverted. why?
Greetings! I really injoy your videos in helping me with my ortur laser. If i may ask a ?; how might I turn off the 'fire alrm' on my unit. It is super sensitive and continues to interupt any progress I try to make with a project. When it is not going off I can't tell why so I am not able to trouble shoot it. I have air and fans and so on to help with the airflow so no burning is happening. Please advise if you can help with a workaround for this issue. Thank you and keep up the great work.
I had that problem only after I opened my blinds to let sunlight in. If sunlight is shining anywhere near it, it will sound the alarm. Saw the video on RUclips but I forget who posted it
I really enjoy your videos but I have an issue maybe you can help me out was burning a cork coaster and my battery on my laptop ran out charge my battery up on my laptop and tried to continue the burn and nothing moves on the laser lightburn says ready that the laser is but when I hit the home button it goes into a busy anything you can help me out with I appreciate thank you
I tried job origin. After the I set it up, I hit job origin. The start position is “ job origin”. When I frame it, it is correct position. When I run the burn, irgoes towards the front until it hits the stop. Any ideas?
My job origin (the 3 x 3 circle selection) is ddll and I can’t click on it. Is this because I am still on the trial and I don’t have the full version or is there a way to change it so I can select my job origin?
If you don't have an object it doesn't know how big it is. Look at Cuts/layer to see if you have anything. I would also image that you should have output selected.
Hello. We just purchased an X7 pro and having great difficulty working it. The origins are wrong even after watching any and every video. When I try to move the laser right, it moves up, etc. Any help or advice you could give me I would greatly appreciate!
Gostei muito do seu vídeo, parabéns. Me ajuda? Estou tendo um probleminha ao executar o homing. Da alarme de bloqueio. O q faço. Configurar o config.h no grbl?
This one Video has changed my life... I've been fighting my XTool D1 for months.... Thank you so much for showing me how to get this thing to play nice. I can now put my laser head Exactly where I want it and repeat all my projects! Cheers
I think I've watched every RUclips video on this subject. For me, your explanation is by far the best. Now it all makes sense. Thank you very much.
Here I am again a year later, saying "thank you" again. You are the bestg.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I Did my first ever test cut an hour ago with LB. Wish I had a look at your video before that ... but now I understand the different options. Thanks again.
my life improved dramatically at 10 minutes ;-) that's been driving me mental...thank you

Thank you for this video, now I understand why the positioning were always negative after Homing... didn't realize I needed to restart the software.
Was totally confused about how this was working -- thanks for the clarification. Tired of having my laser running into the rails!
lol me too the noise that it makes is worse than nails on a chalkboard
Thank you my friend. Your video saved my life.
This was a huge help! Could you please do a video explaining how to set up multiple projects on the grid so they are processed one after the other. So if I were to place out 5 tiles with the same image on each tile once they were where i needed them to be I could start the burn and it would go until all five tiles were complete.

Just make it one job and space your items accordingly.

Yea agreed. Odd that there isn't just an origin button same as Laserworks.

Excellent video.
When using Start from Current Position can you physically push the laser to where you want it to start or must you home it and then use the move keys?
hi, I’m a beginner in laser machine I turn off the Home auto switch it keeps coming and hitting the frame thanks.

Thanks for the info very helpful
Question please. Using lightburn on xtool d1 no limit switches. How to setup and repeat after burn to go to home position x1- y1?
Thank you. Kept getting shifts in the image while learning. Power up to burn more consistent or deeper and you find out your a whole 5mm off.

add the fire button under the device settings
Very well explained ❤
Thank you for the tutorial
Nice video thank you. When I restart my Lightburn it automatically homes the laser and still does not show as 0,0,0? is there a setting I need to change?

Greetings! I really injoy your videos in helping me with my ortur laser. If i may ask a ?; how might I turn off the 'fire alrm' on my unit. It is super sensitive and continues to interupt any progress I try to make with a project. When it is not going off I can't tell why so I am not able to trouble shoot it. I have air and fans and so on to help with the airflow so no burning is happening. Please advise if you can help with a workaround for this issue. Thank you and keep up the great work.
I had that problem only after I opened my blinds to let sunlight in. If sunlight is shining anywhere near it, it will sound the alarm. Saw the video on RUclips but I forget who posted it
Thanx for sharing!
I like the laser guard on your laser, but what if your material isn't absolutely flat, does it hit the material?
I really enjoy your videos but I have an issue maybe you can help me out was burning a cork coaster and my battery on my laptop ran out charge my battery up on my laptop and tried to continue the burn and nothing moves on the laser lightburn says ready that the laser is but when I hit the home button it goes into a busy anything you can help me out with I appreciate thank you
I cleared the right side of my light burn. What can I do to get it back?
Thanks! A potentially frustrating and powerful concepts. Cheers
I tried job origin. After the I set it up, I hit job origin. The start position is “ job origin”. When I frame it, it is correct position. When I run the burn, irgoes towards the front until it hits the stop. Any ideas?
My job origin (the 3 x 3 circle selection) is ddll and I can’t click on it. Is this because I am still on the trial and I don’t have the full version or is there a way to change it so I can select my job origin?
Thanks for the explanation. Please home the picture on the wall in correct orientation :-)
i dont have the settings box on the right, i accidentally closed out of it. how do i get it back?
I don't have the Set Origin, Clear origin and set finish position options on my screen. What am I doing wrong?
If you don't have an object it doesn't know how big it is. Look at Cuts/layer to see if you have anything. I would also image that you should have output selected.
I don't have this either. Did you figure it out?
Hello. We just purchased an X7 pro and having great difficulty working it. The origins are wrong even after watching any and every video. When I try to move the laser right, it moves up, etc. Any help or advice you could give me I would greatly appreciate!
