When connected with a PC
The machine may stop if the PC goes to sleep during processing or SmartDIYs Creator is not active. Do not perform any operations other than SmartDIYs Creator while changing the PC settings and during machining.
If the Etcher Laser stops working, turn off the Etcher Laser, unplug the USB, then replug it back. Turn the Etcher Laser on again and check if it works.
When connected with a smartphone or tablet
In the case of direct connection, iOS may search for other networks to connect to the Internet. In that case, Etcher Laser operation may be affected and Etcher Laser may stop.
If you have a Wi-Fi router, you can solve the above problem by connecting in STA mode (via LAN). Check the connection of the Software setup – smartphone / tablet in STA mode.

Just unboxed my etcher laser 3.5 downloaded the software to a laptop. The motors all work but the laser is not firing. I don't know if I missed a step in unboxing but need a little help trouble shooting.
Hi Clell, are you operating with the lid open? If so, the laser will not fire as a safety precaution. If that's not the case, please shoot us an email!
