Thank you so much for your clear explanation. Most online sources give the impression that the YRR machine is "plug & play" which it most definitely is not. I was getting a whole lot of weird error messages, the "test" function was working but not framing or burning; and your simple guide through the settings menu solved the issues.

great video for rotary. It worked great for me the first time I tried it. Went back to standard with out issues. Today I thought I would get a little creative with a tapered bottom wine bottle. So I made my funky set up. I can provide pics if you want them. But I had issues with the unit itself. I changed my settings to disable homing at start up, then turned off the power and attached the rotary cable. Next I powered up the laser. Then I loaded the rotary file I saved from my first go at the rotary set up that i did via your video. Then I selected write into the machine settings and created my burn file graphics. Then it went crazy. I kept getting the Gcode error while trying to home or jog. I had home turned off. Anyway, I had to go back to the standard settings which was a little difficult because of the gcode error. after research on inet, i found a comment about an error in the $22 code. fixed that and i was back to good to go on the standard settings. Then I thought I would try one last time. Instead of using my saved rotary machine settings I started from scratch with your video. It worked great. I know this is a long comment but my question is, d0 you have issues when you go back and forth between the two machine setting files?

Hey Rich I am struggling with this and can't seem to figure out why. I am sure I am doing something painstakingly stupid and obvious, but I can not for the life of me figure it out. These are the steps I have gone through and everything goes haywire. What could I be doing wrong? ( I have the ortur laser master 2 pro, and using lightburn V1.0.06 Default settings are on. Move laser to origin which for me is dead center of the work area. Power off the laser, disconnect Y-axis and connect the rotary tool to it. Power on laser and load “rotary settings” file. Crap hits the fan. I try and send it to a location and it goes crazy saying I am out of the work area, it just moves the X-Axis to far right of the machine and hits the wall. Hit get position just to see I am in “negative coordinates”. Try and switch everything back to "Default settings" but now light burn believes my machine is in "Negative Coordinates". I have to Home the machine and enter G0 X0 Y0 to get it to find the origin, then enter G10 L2 P1 X-400 Y-400 to get the software to operate the machine properly again. Then I try the process over with the same results each time. I have attempted this 4 times now and I am pulling my hair out. Thanks for the great video, and any advice you might be able to offer.

Hello, I have a Shapeoko 3XXX. Do you know if this will work on this machine? The Y cable is cancelled in a box. If I had some kind of cable to plug into the port and have it extend out of the box that I can easily get to would that work? Great video by the way.

Rich thank you for your video it was spot on. I have a NEJE 3 max / A40640 laser. I saved the default machine settings page as instructed. but after finishing with the attachment I reloaded the default settings. Now the laser will only move from the home position to the origin position it will not obey any other commands. The machine operates perfectly using my cell phone. All operations appear to be correct. Do you have any idea what may have happened?

I tested it with another laptop I have on one of the cnc machines and we have touchdown. I'm thinking about getting a second laser. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you again for your help.

Sorry Rich, I assumed the comments went with the video I was viewing. The video I watched was called "Ortur Laser YRR Rotary Setup The Only COMPLETE guide!" you showed saving the setting to make it quicker when you switched back and forth from rotary to flat laser work. Unless I missed it, it did not show where or how you use those saved settings to switch back and forth.

Rich...I have a xTool D1 that I have been trying to set to engrave tumblers for my wife's annual Sisters weekend. I am under the gun.. By the way I am a extreme newby. I assume the setup is similar. I have watched every video I can and no-one using this attachment really explains how to set it up for lightburn. I am using the xTool RA2 Pro with just the rollers and no chuck. They, xTool, initially sets the mm per rotation at 370mm which seems rather large. I am not sure what this means...rotation per mm of what...the item being etched? Is that set only once or for each item being etched. Lightburns manual doesn't address this and their KZitem video is very basic and leaves a lot out. I thank-you for your fine videos....complete videos..that explain the topic. I am going to use your calibration method this AM for the tumblers I am going to engrave.
@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy

Pretty sure the x-Tool mm/rot are right. That has to do with the stepper motor. I haven't used their rotary so I wouldn't know, but the parameters are similar. If you use the roller, check roller for the type, Z for the axis, 32mm/rotation and 17mm for the roller diameter and mirror output selected. For the chuck, it's type Z for the axis, and 128 mm/rotation with the same settings.

Great video! I have the Atomstack R3 Rotary. The principle is the same. One question I have is concerning the mm per rotation setting. Should this be the diameter of the roller times pi? My roller is 16mm in diameter so the mm per rotation would be 50mm. Or am I falling down a rabbit hole. Thanks again for the videos you produce! Denham Springs
@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy

No Jeff. They all seem to be different and it's based on the stepper motor used. For example, one rotary on my Co2 is 8250 SR with a 24mm roller diameter, and another is 9200 SR with a 25mm roller. So the numbers are based on the motor & the roller.

Your position coordinates are off. Disconnect the rotary, plug in the Y, put your settings back to normal, reset the laser, type $RST=* in the console tab, then click home. It won't hurt to do a hard power off reset either. Next jog the laser to the approximate position of the rotary and then plug in the rotary to the Y and redo your settings and you should be good. It's good practice to always do a power off on the laser and then power on with the homing cycle before every new job.

Hi buddy. Many thanks for this and all your videos (I think I’ve watched most of them!). Having done so, I have decided to upgrade from my 3018 machine to a CO2 machine. After what was a steep learning curve, I am ready for the jump. My question for you I about a rotary attachment. I really like the look and versatility of the Xtool RA2 but was wondering if it would be in any way compatible with an OMTech 80w machine. If not, maybe a recommendation from you. I’ll be very grateful for any help mate. Take care and keep up the good work. 🤓

Not that I know of Bill. Co2 lasers use 2 or 3-phase rollers, OMTech & Monport are both 2-phase. Much better chuck rollers are available for the Co2 for about the same price as the xTool.
