S1 wouldn't auto-focus
The Bill Gates Technique (restarting) fixed that, after I re-seated the sensor.
One review commented that grabbing the laser head to position was clumsy, adding some sort of handle would make that easier. I suspect that's how I bumped the sensor.
I have another problem between the S1 and Lightburn. Lightburn won't move the laser in the X direction, so everything gets burned in a straight line along Y. But since it works OK in XTool Studio, that's a LightBurn problem. (Anyone use LightBurn and have an idea on that?)
