Not sure if you used the search?

> I will start out by saying, I do NOT recommend this. This was mostly for me to test could it be done. Since I’m writing this guide… guess it can! For those who want to try it anyway, I’ll layout how to do it, but be warned. This is an advanced process. It will require a lot of double-checks, a bit of initial setup for origins, and a bit more gcode editing (nothing hard though, and most can be done with a batch script if someone chose to write it). That being said, onward I guess!

I searched for lightburn rotary and got at least two hits of @Skreelink s guides.

I have seen the guide but the code has to be worked on manually. I want to start the program directly via Lightburn without changing the code.  
Is anyone currently having problems working with Snapmaker’s machine settings in Lightburn? Snapmaker can be controlled via Marlin but not via the Snapmaker settings in my LIghtburn i have Lightburn v1.7.02

Since Lightburn version 6.0.3, the program no longer works with “Snapmaker Merlin”. The laser no longer switched on, although the machine was working perfectly. I have now switched Lightburn to “grbl” and the problem has been resolved. I am currently using version 1.7.01. What doesn’t work is the home button. The solution is a macro with the code G28.
