Jackpot, Run Lightburn Generated .GC File From FluidNC MicroSD Card

Software / Firmware Jackpot Board / FluidNC

Hi I am trying to figure out how to run a Lightburn generated .gc file that I have on a micro SD card.

I can see the file on the SD card when it is inserted into the SD card slot of the jackpot.

I am just not sure how to run the file
Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks
Tom

If you click on the file name a play button will show up next to it.

I don’t get a play button
Should the file extension be .gc ?
Whent he file is generated the Device in lightburn is the GRBL laser settings for the wifi connected laser

Should I make a new GBRL laser with a different setting than a WiFi connection ?

I don’t have a UI handy right now, but there is a place where you set file filters, and I believe only those are playable.

The default in Ryan’s config is

“f_filters”: “g;G;gco;GCO;gcode;GCODE;nc;NC;ngc;NCG;tap;TAP;txt;TXT”,

try adding .gc to that, or change your extension to .gcode or one of the others
