    How do I turn on the LED lights?

    I have tried to go into the control panel in ReplicatorG and changing the LED color but still that does not turn on any leds for me. I'm at a complete loss here.

    There is an option in the LCD screen for lights on or off and color. Not sure about RepG. I rarely have my computer connected directly to the printer and have been using makerware.

    I have looked all over and I can't find it. Can you tell me the specific path that I need to take to get to the color menu?

    Is it for the creator x? I will look later, I don't have the machine in front of me right now. It is in one of the utility or options pages. If you scroll through all of them it should show up.

    No Idea on the creator X sorry, the original flashforge didnt come with LED's , they are an optional extra.

    Under "Info and Settings" go to General settings. The lights should be on by default, they were on mine anyway.

    I don't see an option like that for mine. I updated the firmware if that matters.

    Here is what I see under the general options.

    Cant help ya there. I'm just using whatever came on the Creator X for now. I read some about Sailfish, but nothing that wows me into switching.
