For re-starting the laser with commands after having opened the remote interlock switch, execute “cf” for clear fault 

followed by “@cob1” to restart the laser. This command forces the laser into Auto-start enabled so Auto-start must 

be disabled if this is the required set up. On CDRH models the key switch is the only way to re-start.
