Caution

damage
FH Flyer marking heads require a DC power supply voltage of +30.0
VDC ± 2.0 V. The Flyer head may not function properly if the DC
supply voltage drops below +28.0 VDC. Before connecting the DC
Power cable, measure your DC supply’s output voltage under load to
ensure that it can p30 VDC.
Note: If you require a custom length DC Power cable, a spare power connector with crimp pins for
18–24 AWG wire is included in the Accessory Kit. When wiring the spare connector, refer to
Figure 1-9 below for the polarity of Flyer’s Power jack (as seen when facing the Flyer head).

Laser Control cable
Locate the Laser Control cable in the ship kit. It is a 6 foot (1.8 m) long coaxial cable with male BNC
connectors on each end. To aid electrical noise suppression, one end of the Laser Control cable is looped
through a ferrite bead. Connect this end of the cable to the Flyer head (see Figure 1-10). Install the Laser
Control cable between Flyer and your laser according to the laser types listed below.
