Moving laser head from keyboard or pendent

Community Laser Talk
#1

Hello all, I have a cohesion 3d board on my K40 and am using lightburn as my software. I wanted to see if there is a way to move the laser head into position with the keyboard or a pendent? I tried the number keypad in lightburn, but it will not work. I also tried my pendent that I use on my CNC and that did not work either. I am running smoothieware on my board.

thanks for your help,
Justin

To use the keypad, numlock must be on and you need to click in the edit workspace to give it focus. Give that a try and let me know

Anthony, thanks for the info, that is what I was missing. I was not moving back to the workspace. Is there no way to have it move continuously, instead of the amount you put in the box?

Thanks,
Justin
