Turn the key switch to the "REM" or "ON" position and power on the laser

“POWER”

green indicator is illuminated and the red guide laser is output. The red guide laser is off when

“LASER” button in front panel is pressed down or command “EMON” is sent via RS-232, while

the red laser is on when “LASER” is released or command “EMOFF” is sent via RS-232.

CAUTION: The red laser and the laser emission cannot be output at the
same time. If there is no red light output, please check if the "LASER"
button is released and command “EMOFF” is sent.
