Honestly was my first thought and I’ve double and tripoli checked I even get a light when its close. Enough
ok so in the settings screen of Carbide Motion it will tell you in sort of a live view, which of the sensors is triggering…
one thing to try is to turn off the machine, move it to the place where ONLY Y is supposed to trigger,
turn on the machine and go to the settings screen…
Y should show there.
(you can do this also with X and Z to see what it looks like)

Y does initiallize first when x should correct?
pretty sure it’s Z - Y - X
the screenshot shows “no active pins” … so nothing is registering.
Thats why I’m confused cause prox is going red every time
Z carriage v wheels too tight:ok_hand: we good

OK dumb question time but everywhere I read I don’t get a straight yes or no. Using lightburn am I now scrapping use of carbide motion? Set macros etc in lightburn and just run everything I do from there?
yes you can use lightburn for your laser instead of CM.
but in More CC Pro fun @Julien shows there are other things you can do with lasers that do not involve lightburn

And I’d be importing into lightburn still using it to control just designing in CC pro?
You can design and control with Lightburn.

5 days playing between lightburn and CCpro this is my first stab at some relief…I’ve got some work to do but its a start for sure. ! Wood was just something laying around not ideal but I’m just practicing.
