Hello!
After reading the Safety manual…
I successfully Installed:
-the Cabling
-the Laser Driver
-The Laser Unit (On the Right Side)
Looked at Bucky’s Video (How to install the Sienci Laser to your LongMill! - YouTube)
It talks a lot about installing, and suddenly he his engraving, we do not see the Lens Install/Focus Operation (or anything on the Software (and GCode Firmware Values)
Is there an other Video/resource that would fill this Gap?
I am able to start the Laser Driver:
-The laser driver Fan starts (A bit noisy)
-The Cooling Fan Starts
-Not sure if Laser Assist Fan is running
I have purchases G2 & 3E Lenses
Started with the 3Element Lens
From the Video + Forum I understand the Slotted side must go on the Lens Focus ring side
What about the Spring?
It came with: 7mm/10mm/13mm
Which one to use? in which order? Specific to Leans selection?
Also, the Focusing Stick, when measured in the “3E” Text orientation is 2.461in
The Focusing Stick, when measured in the Vertical orientation is 2.621in
What orientation is the Right one?
I have used the Focusing Stick with the text readable as horizontal
I used the Laser unit Bottom as a reference (Not the position of the Focus Ring) is this OK?
I am a GSender user, and also purchased Lighburn.
Started with GSender, i am able to Toggle in Laser Mode, Use the Test button @ 1%
The Driver’s Dipswitch position is at 1Amp
I see the Laser on my test material. (Yes using the Goggles)
It requires focusing since i see a .5in line instead of a dot.
Should i:
-Play with the Z position? (GSender)
-Turn the Focus Ring Clockwise? Counterclockwise?
-Do you focus with Laser ON (Or Test Mode)? or iterate while Laser is OFF?
As you see, I am missing a bit of information.
Probably available somewhere.
Hopefully someone here will be able to point me in the right direction.
Thanks
NJ
