Hello,
I have recently noticed a weird issue with regards to the UV LED light turnoff post-layer curing. Normally, just after the layer exposure is done, the LCD goes blank and layer peel movements kicks-in.
However, for a few layers, the UV LED stays on for a little while longer after finishing layer exposure & LCD goes blank and turns off while peel movement is happening. Has anyone else too noticed this?? Thanks!

Have you checked sequence of UV LED on / off on code boxes?

Shahin,
LED on / off is controlled via the ShutterOpen & Close Gcode boxes. While the peel movements are instructed on the beforelayer and afterlayer Gcode.
Also, this doesn't happen for all layers, it randomly occurs for a few layers.

Shutter codes run in parallel, so try to move those codes into before and after inputs to prevent random actions

That makes sense for the random behavior. I will have the shutter codes moved to before and after layer gcode.
Though, this will mean UV Lamp cannot be turned on/off separately.

It depends on gcode and firmware being used there are ways to keep it async but in my opinion it does not worth it.

Totally agree!
Moreover there are workarounds to achieve the functionality I mentioned
