hi @MagoKimbra , thanks for sharing the codes , however I coud'nt find active low laser function in your codes , actually I made cnc laser with https://github.com/TurnkeyTyranny modified marlin code which is now updated with Hanken https://github.com/HakanBastedt/Marlin4Due/tree/Laser for due board , we discus with couple of cool guys about how the most code not consider readiness the tools in codes, and always suppose the tools is up and ready , for example in plasma machine it is necessary ,the torch is initiated and ready for cut , also in laser machine , laser power unit always check the cooling system and power of the beam , and I think this readiness should be check in loop function , it is standard way which software such as Mach3 do I really appreciated if you could check those code as well as my due shield for cnc laser and have your comments ,

Ok check and let you know as soon as possible ..

thanks @MagoKimbra , I've check your codes also check it with new code of @HakanBastedt ,he combine his code with TurnkeyTyranny and got fine result , also I suggest define new definition for G0 & G1 code for laser option , because most g-code software generator , don't generate m0 and m5 for laser control also can you tell me which software do you use for generating g-code

Mkeyno, I use inkscape with the 305engineering plug-in. It works well and is simple to use

mkeyno commented 8 years ago

hi @daa5933 , I know 305engineering plug-in but it is not very good option for real laser machines , for example if you use the laser for cut thin metal you need dwell time to pierce the material or sometime you need check or command peripheral during the job

On standard 8 bit MarlinKimbra i'm proposing a pull request to integrate the laser code from Turnkey Tyranny (https://github.com/MagoKimbra/MarlinKimbra/pull/113), after that, i will move to port the same patch also here for MK4due
