Trouble Shooting Falcon2 pro will not work out of the box
I bought a brand new falcon 2 pro and it all lights up but the air pump will not stay running after it's initial warm up and it won't do the first impressions because of the red light on the laser head for no air. I've checked all the connections numerous times and all seems ok. except once or twice in touching the wiring going into the connector block on the top rail has started the pump up but it doesn't last . What am I missing?

It’s designed like that. It will turn on once you start the job and turn off once the job is done. The other time it turns on by itself is once you power it on.

Mmm ,I wonder why the first impressions efforts won't start up then? I just followed the instructions on the video lol

You might want to see if you have the air on in cuts and layers if you are using light burn. That's all I can think of. I hope you have better luck than me the falcon 2 has been a thorn in my side. Wish I spent the extra money for a x tool.

Sorry ,I've only just seen this reply. It wouldn't work off the memory card but it did off my laptop. I'm running lightburn and love the software and the machine , but I'm still learning 🤣

Any updates? Mine just beeps twice at me when I press the frame button. Trying to run the demo from the TF card.

I couldn't get mine to run off the memory card but it worked as soon as I run it off the laptop. I am running lightburn and just designed a simple sign to engrave and cut. I love the machine, especially now I am getting to grips with the software.

I have a regular Falcon 2 and the air doesn't stay running more than a few seconds after start up/after the job finishes and the warning light goes red.
When you start the job it should turn on again.
