I received my reno pro 45 and would like to see a video on how to use the onboard menu. I see there is so many settings and the manual it came with did not address the menu. Thanks.
@@thelaserchannel1 I've added a co2 laser to my shop, I currently running the gcode version of lightburn, how do I go to the version to run the new laser?
@@mikeledee8786 The gcode Lightburn is Lightburn Core. To run the Reno you'll need the Pro version. Upgrade your current LB license instead of buying a whole new license key- upgrading the license key my have a discount. 😀 On the Reno USB thumb drive there's a software file that needs to be installed (I forget the name of it) so LB can connect to the Reno.
On Co2 lasers the Fire button is disabled from what I understand. Firing the laser (that we can't see) will mark the material. There is a Pulse button the machine control panel to manually pulse the laser.
Thanks:) The stock air pump is a great balance between the lower flow for engraving but high enough to cut most materials. I do lots of engraving with some cutting so I'm keeping the stock air pump. I do recommend the Pro version- mainly for using Lightburn! Both the Standard and Pro versions do come with Free software.
I am thinking of the fume extractor you are showing, maybe in the future I will buy one but for now I want to use a inline fan for my monport 45 pro to move more smoke out, which one would you recommend? Thanks.
I would recommend this one: amzn.to/3Cl5KRd I believe the Reno has a 5" duct so you'll need an adaptor or simply take the Reno hose and run it inside some 6" duct. Hose: amzn.to/40RRDwl
@@85sexxyblack No problem- I have used MeerK40T a little and like for free software. I recommend installing the software included with the machine to make sure your computer can connect- many insuring the correct USB drivers are installed. Once connected you can exit and close the software and use MeerK40t- it would connect right away! Here's a link to a video where I'm using MeerK40t: th-cam.com/video/Lrpo8ImAO98/w-d-xo.html

Certainly- I'll add it to the video list!

I upgraded to Lightburn 1.7 and can't find the fire button in the device settings as before, do you know where it's at now? Thanks.

Thanks for this informative overview. What are your thoughts on upgrading the air assist to an external aquarium pump like you did with the Onyx?

@@thelaserchannel1 Thank You
Question, do you know why in LB 1.7 when I hit start or send I get the message "Enter a name for the target file", every time? Thank you.
Can you assist me with meetk40t using Lightburn I seem to have it setup but no movement I have a Basic Reno
The basic Reno machine does not use Lightburn. It's the Pro version that can use Lightburn. I have not setup the machine with MeerK40T software.
I’m not familiar with the other software that the company recommended that’s why I asked!
