Thank you for your feedback!

merci super tuto comment inverser l origin screen ?

[@antoniolamarca6094]

thanks for your videos! I noticed that when I repeatedly cut the same design, the cut tends to gradually move a few millimeters down the Y axis and therefore the cut does not always reposition itself in the same point. What could be the problem? Thank you for your answer!

How much different is this ruida controller vs the other Ryxon controller that comes in the 80w manual focus machine?

[@fdennisk]

I just purchased an OMTech and I am awaiting the delivery. I have another laser (a diode) that runs directly from Lightburn. Hit “play” and it runs the laser. Does the play button now send the file to the Rudia controller, and now I run it from the Rudia? Or, am I saving the Lightburn file as a different file type and exporting it to the Rudia controller? Similar to a traditional G-Code CNC file?

Hello, when i connect steering panel to the mainboard and connect 24VDC without Motors or enything else can i check the menu and other functions on the display? I bought panel and mainboard and when i connect to 24VDC only reset switch is working, i cant enter to the menu. Is this correct? Cheers.

[@gretchenbernal1270]

I was looking at your video

[@rusticagenerica]

Can a Ruida controller be used for a pen plotter?

[@cory8619]

I have that same controller. Am unable to use machine due to "Air Pressure Error" Message that shows up on the Ruida display when I try to run a program.

[@daniebrand8644]

Hi, I am Daniel.
I had pretty much the same problem. So I followed the airline from the compressor all the way to the cutting head, and find a 360° bend in the pipe, which prevent the air to flow through.

Question, when I import the file, can I deaktivate Layers. Reson it was nocht cutted out so I need one the cutting layer not the other ones..can you help?

[@angeladelreal9046]

how do I reset my ruida controller password my y axis is reversed and I need to reset

[@freebird1963]

Pretty thin on explanations in the video. So you show the min/max buttons but can you change/set them with it ? Once you redo the origin to a new spot from the home spot does it still go home or will it go to the new origin ? So many things skipped over.

[@thashkeermawjood5725]

What is the model number of this Ruida controller? Pls as I also have the same controller but I don’t know the model ,

[@omtechlaser]

I believe the model number in this video is the RDC6442S

[@saraeissa4954]

Everything works for my machine except the actual laser isn’t turned on

[@Crazybraincreative]

This is a helpful video, but the camera moves way too much.
