Hey Guys, I have a flash-forge Creator Rro and do prints over night. When the printer finishes in the middle of the night it is idle. The flashforge creator pro lights stay on after a print finishes. Is there something I can add to the G-Code in simplify 3D to turn off the lights after the print completes? Thanks.

Hi @Johnnyo1012 have you tried M355?

I can’t test it right now as I’m printing…

I would suggest asking on the S3D forums. I can also try the suggestion of cobnut later today if you don’t get a solution.

Test this into your ending script.

M146 r255 g255 b255 ; Turn lights off

or M355 ;

Either of those should do it.

M146 is generally used to control humidity but I believe Flashforge uses it for light control.

M355 didn’t work for me on a quick test, so maybe M146 is the way to go as Chris suggests…

I believe you can use an M146 at the end of your gcode. Add it to scripts in s3d.

M146 r0 g0 b0

If I recall, you can also disable LEDs with the front panel, but not sure about that.
