6.2.5 Software massage „Door open“ in closed  

 

Possible cause: 

Check/fix: 

Broken door contact 

Replace or contact technician 

 
 

6.2.6 Engraving moved in glass 

 

Possible cause: 

Check/fix: 

Legoboard moved/loosened 

Drive table on start position and check whether pilot 
laser appears in the right place. 
Check if the Legoboard is still firmly connected with the 
table. 
 

Start position values changed 

Redefine values for starting position - see software 
manual 

 
 

6.2.7 Motives with defects always in the same place 

 

Possible cause: 

Check/fix: 

Dirt particles on the lens 

The clean the optics with soft cloth and alcohol. 
Engrave flat glass with white pattern over the entire 
scan area without tiling (approx. 70 mm Ø), to 
determine whether the error is resolved. 
If error still exists then 
 

Optics defekt 

Replace lens, must by made service technicians 

 
 

6.2.8 Motives with streaks or strips 

 

Possible cause: 

Check/fix: 

Tension in the glass or surface 
badly polished 

Stresses inside the glass can be checked with the glass 
tension tester (see special equipment).  
Continuous strip can be caused by light waves in the 
surface of the glass, which deflect the laser beam.  
You can check this by mirroring straight edges - e.g. 
fluorescent tubes - in the surface can and watch for 
deformations. 
If deformation or tension is noticed, the glass is not 
useable for subsurface engraving.
