Connecting to a 3018-PRO
The laser head has two 2-pin connection cables, one for the power supply of the cooling fan and one for the
laser diode. Make sure that both cables are connected to the yellow and white pin socket of the laser control
module as described above.
The laser control unit can be mounted on the rear of the CNC machine on the aluminum profile to the right of
the control unit of the CNC machine using the M3 T nuts and screws supplied. Make sure that the cables to the
laser head can move freely so that the laser can move in all axes to the limits of its travel.
Connecting to your CNC Controller
The above images show the two varieties of 3018-Pro boards currently in circulation. In either case, the red
3-pin port is connected via a wire included with your module which connects on the other end to a red 3-pin port
on your Laser Control Module.
