      Hello,

      I have installed a Sculfun S9 Laser module and I am able to use it but I could like to be able to enable the dot on a low power to position my laser correctly.
      I am able to turn it on mith the commands:
      M950 P0 C"!exp.heater3" Q1000 ; allocate GPIO port 0 to heater3 on expansion connector, 500Hz
      M42 P0 S0.01 ; set 1% PWM duty on GPIO port 0

      But after that, I am not able to use the laser anymore. It always say hat "the pin is already assigned" so I have tried to unassign it by using
      M950 P0 C"nil"
      Without success.

      How could I fix it please?

      Regards,

        What happens when you send that command?

        What do you get if you send M950 P0 by itself before and after?

        Firmware version?
