Hey everyone,
been a long time lurker here and read alot of this forum before I took the dive and ordered a G350 60W Shenhui Laser.
Your posts have been very informative and helped me alot in this new world of lasers.
But now I have hit a bit of a roadblock:
This morning I had loaded up an image and started engraving it on a piece of wood and found that the settings were leaving the image a bit too dark, so I clicked stop before the process had finished. And now I have lost access to the motors completely...
I reset the machine, expecting the motors to go back their reset position, but they didn't move...
In laserworks I tried controlling the laser position and found that it thinks it is moving it around but nothing is happening mechanically.
I presume this is a motor driver problem?
If so, has anyone come across this and could anyone shed some light on how to go about this? Any things I should try? I only bought this laser in the last couple of months so it should be covered by warranty?
I don't quite know what to do. Please help :)
