Thanks for the reply Dave.

After a bit of tinkering with device manager, all is well.

Hi, I've recently changed the pc I use with my cutter. Previously it was Windows 7, but now I have Windows 10 installed on a new build. I installed Lasercut, then installed the drivers I've had since I purchased the laser this March, but I am getting errors when trying to send files to the machine. ...

So the LS3020 LSCT with it's 30w tube should be significantly less. Then you have the pump and fan running etc, but I can't see it being crazy.

Hi,

Does anyone know what kind of power consumption an LS3020 LSCT would be using?. I see on the machine it's rated as 400w, so is it essentially the same as e.g running a 400w power supply in a pc?

cheers

Hi Tom and Dave,

Good call, didn't think about that method.

Thanks for the help.

Hi,

In Lasercut is there anyway to 'hide' shapes that I currently don't want to cut?

I tried moving them off of the 'bed' area in Lasercut, but it still seems to recognise they are there as the file won't cut.


cheers

It took a while but I got there. I had a flashback of a test piece I ran on an incorrect power, and finally it twigged!.

I just thought. If I turned down the power, so it doesn't cut all the way through, that would be the effect I desire?

So is there no simple way to do something like this in Lasercut:

Just set a line to be engraved as a line?

Aha I see.

So there is no direct way to tell Lasercut to just engrave a single line?. I would need to have 2 lines close to each other, and tell them both to engrave like you said?.
