This article applies to:

xTool S1 with all laser modules.

Issue Description

Under normal circumstances, opening the lid of xTool S1 should stop the ongoing job, while an pop-up error message pops up in the XCS software. However, if you find the machine keeps working with the lid opened, please see this guide for advice.

Possible Cause

The lid detection could be disabled by incorrect commend. Make sure that you have not sent any commands to the machine using any serial port tools or Lightburn. Incorrect command can block the machine's lid detection function.

Solution

We can use the Lightburn software to check if this function is disabled, and then turn it back on.

#1 Connect Lightburn

About using Lighburn with xTool S1, please see this guide for details.

#2 Check the Detection Status

Enter the commend "M802" in Console and press Enter to send it.

See the message the Console returns:

• If it's "M802 S0", the detection is enabled.
• If it's "M802 S1", the detection is disabled.

#3 Enable the Lid Detection

Enter the commend "M802 S0" to enable the lid detection.
