+Wolfmanjm has added some new features to smoothieware that will be of great use to LaserWeb users.

  1. You can now send a code through the LaserWeb terminal interface to adjust your power level on the fly. It is the M221 command. Usage - M221 S50 will set the laser power to 50% M221 S100 sets it back to 100%

  2. A new fire command. Send fire 70 ( make sure it is lowercase) through the LaserWeb terminal and it will fire the laser at 70% Send fire off and it will turn off the laser and return it to automatic mode. Great for positioning the laser.

These features are now integrated in the Jog panel. You don't need to send manual codes anymore.
