This article applies to:

D1 and D1 Pro with all laser modules.
 

Issue Description

If you find the laser module to be shaky or jittering during the movement, please follow the instructions below to troubleshoot.
 

#1 Check the Connection Method

Please try the Wi-Fi connection mode. If the machine is connected through USB, the computer generates data in real-time and transfers it to the device for processing. This may cause the laser module to jitter.
 

#2 Check the Computer Performance

The performance requirements:
 
 MinimumRecommended
ProcessorIntel Core i5-6200UIntel Core i5-11600
OS
Win10 (64bit)
Mac 10.14
Mac 10.15

Display1280*7201920 x 1080
Hard Disk Space8GB12GB
 

#3 Check the Stability of the Machine

Make sure the machine is placed on a level and steady surface, for example, on flat ground, or on a steady and level table.
 

#4 Check the Risers

Take off the risers. This will lower the center of gravity and make the machine more steady.
 

#5 Check the Processing Speed

Lower the processing speed to under 100mm/s for better processing results.
 

#6 Check the Bitmap Mode

If you are processing a bitmap image, DO NOT use Grayscale mode.
V2.1 or later
