New install but strange laser issue.

Hi all I have been trying to trouble shoot this issue with Paul for about a week now but we can not seem to find the answer to solve it. Back story, I had the Cohesion 3d mini in my K40 but after just over a year the thing died on me so I thought I'd come over the the Gerbil side.

After installing it and having a few basic teething problems it seems I am left with one that is going to destroy my mind. I have found that I can run a job to completion with everything as it should be but should I need to abort the job the laser will remain firing until I manually send an M3 command or disconnect and reconnect Laserweb. I am running Laserweb4 but have also tried the g-code within CNCjs as per Pauls advice.

Within Laserweb I have tried changing around the start/stop M4,M3 and M5 commands to see what difference that makes but non of these changes have made a difference when aborting the job. I appreciate it's rare to need to abort a job but for this reason alone I feel it's better to address in rather than forget about it and have the workshop burn down.

Has anybody else come across this issue and found an answer as I really need to get things moving and I'm sure Paul would like to know the cause/fix also.

Hey Andy, any follow up so far? Is there something I can help with?

Cheers, Paul awesome.tech

Hi Paul I've got to be honest I'm not sure how far I got with it, I've been awaiting the replacement PSU and it send the seeker decided to take it upon themselves to send just the HV flyback rather than a whole psu. I'm not 100% the flyback is the problem ss I am now in a dispute with them.

It may be time to refit the old PSU and see where that take me. I will give you an update once I'm back up and running.
