5.5. Getting started 

 
During  initial  investigation  of  functionality  of  controller  and  software,  do  not  connect  laser  diode  to  the 
controller. It is recommend to familiarize with the controller by using equivalent circuits – resistor 10ohm 2W - 
instead of real  laser diode, some small Peltier element 11x12mm coupled with NTC resistor 10k B25/85=3977 
(for  example),  or  resistor 10ohm 2W  instead of Peltier element, or  fixed  value  resistor 10k -  instead of NTC 
resistor.  Also  you  can connect  nothing  – if  you  just  want  to look to software  window  and controller  settings. 
 
If your laser system, containing this controller and laser diode, already was tuned, check laser diode connection 
and  screw  fixing  before plugging power.  Light emission  have to start after power  (DC 5V) plugging  -  do not 
look to laser  aperture.     
 
To switch  ON the laser  system  for the  first  time  user  should  perform  the  following  operations 

1.

 

Plug the DC 5V connector of the power cord into the front panel of the device (be sure AC-DC adapter 
is  connected  to  wall  power).  Light  emission  of  laser  diode  appears  after  some  delay  time.  This  delay 
consists  of  artificial  about  4  seconds  delay  (by  design)  and  delay  to  reach  preset  temperature  of  laser 
diode  (few  seconds). 

2.

 

In case,  if  it  is required controller  state  monitoring or/and want to change any presets, r un JLV-SOFT9 
software  and establish  communication  between  controller  and  PC by choosing  the correct  COM port.
