Control Interface
There are DB9 and DB25 interfaces at the rear of the laser. The DB9 is a RS232 interface
only used for debugging, no needs to connect. And DB25 is the joint interface connecting control
system to the laser system, please make sure the connection is reliable before operation. Feet of
the DB25 are defined as follows in Fig. 5.

a)
The pump current of diode laser and the laser output power are controlled by setting the
value of PIN1-PIN8 (TTL level). PIN1-PIN8 can be set from 0
~
255
,
corresponding to
the laser output power from 0
~
100
%
(the actual laser power may not be strictly linear
with the setting value). The relationship between PIN value and output power is shown
