any chance to do it work on my little laser EleksMaker?
I bought the T2Lazer too, but before I buy the laser module for my VCarve I would wish to know if it will works!
Thank you.
Alex

Hi Alex,
Here is a link to a page that lists current compatible laser systems. You can also download the Free Trial if you want to run some tests to see if it will work with your laser before you purchase.

I read there but I still have some doubts. I will ask for the T2laser support if one of those works and also to make a test. I hope can be apt to use it because I do not need more than this cheap laser to do my things.
Thank you

I would be interested in what you found out with T2 Laser. I have the same setup.
Thanks in advance

Re: Works with a EleksMaker?
I was able to use this laser module with my eleksmaker (same model as you have).
you do have to make sure that you upgrade the eleksmaker firmware to the latest version.
LaserGRBL allows you to do this easily. The latest firmware is something like v1.1h.
I hope this helps.

Can you post a screen shot of your setup for the laser settings?steve howe wrote: ↑Sun Oct 11, 2020 6:06 pmI was able to use this laser module with my eleksmaker (same model as you have).

Re: Works with a EleksMaker?
Before the laser module I created an end mill:
With the laser module I modified a laser tool.
I still am tweaking all the settings and don't have it all dialed in yet.
But it does work since it uses standard GRBL gcode.
I find there is still some strangeness about settings in the tool database, but again, it will work.
I hope this is what you wanted.

Thank you, sorry for not answer you before. I burned my laser board and I ordered another one from EleskMaster new version and it delayed months!steve howe wrote: ↑Sun Oct 11, 2020 6:06 pmI was able to use this laser module with my eleksmaker (same model as you have).
