Failure in "Download current"
If it appears to talk to the laser, but "Download Current" does not work, it's because LaserCut cannot write to a couple of files in C:\ root. Temp workaround: run as admin. Full workaround: update permissions for these files.
Unable to change power of Engrave
If you can change the speed in engrave mode and every other setting in cut mode, but not the power in engrave mode (e.g., it's stuck at 15), then change **both** the power and the speed, which unlocks the setting of power.
"We have finded overlap data,please checd data and ouptu"
This means that some of your engraving paths overlap, and so the laser will turn on when it finds the outermost path and off when it finds an overlap. If you have the same shape twice, the laser will do the engraving passes without turning on and look like the laser is out of power. See also this StackExchange thread.
