Hi, so, i have the laser hooked to a router, with a cncshield and grbl, laserweb3, all installed as per wiki.

If i hit “laser test”, the laser turns on, all good, i can go from 0 to 255 as test power.

Now, when i import a dxf and generate the gcode, the gcode command to turn on the laser is missing, on that line all i get is “S255”.

Here´s a bit of code:
38.2416
G1 F1200 X0.7132 Y38.2416 Z0.0000
G1 F1200 X0.9635 Y38.8150 Z0.0000 S255
G1 F1200 X1.2218 Y39.3717 Z0.0000 S255
G1 F1200 X1.4883 Y39.9118 Z0.0000 S255
G1 F1200 X1.7629 Y40.4354 Z0.0000 S255
G1 F1200 X2.0455 Y40.9424 Z0.0000 S255

answering myself, $32=1, so the g1 followed by a S### is expected on the gcode, but the laser wont turn on. It does if i hit the “laser test” button.

sorry for wasting your time guys, i was missing M3 on the start gcode, facepalm.
