Status LEDs
Three status LEDs on the rear of the OEM v30 laser provide a visual indication of operating status. A
green PWR LED illuminates when DC power is applied to the laser. The yellow RDY LED indicates that a
Laser Enable signal has been applied and lasing will begin once a PWM Command signal is received. The
LASE LED illuminates red to indicate that the PWM Command signal is sufficient to induce laser output.
Danger
serious
personal
injury
This Class 4 laser product emits invisible infrared laser radiation in
the 9.3– 10.6 µm CO
2
wavelength band depending on model. Be-
cause direct or diffuse laser radiation can inflict severe corneal inju-
ries, always wear eye protection when in the same area as an exposed
laser beam. Do not contact the laser beam. This product emits an
invisible laser beam that is capable of seriously burning human tissue.
Always be aware of the beam’s path and always use a beam block
while testing.
Caution
possible
equipment
damage
Remove the aperture seal before firing the laser. The self-adhesive
seal is installed to prevent dust from entering the laser housing during
shipment and installation and must be removed before operation.
Warning
serious
personal
injury
Firestar OEM v30 SxG lasers do not include a five-second delay
function. This means a tickle signal can be applied immediately after
the Laser Enable input is activated, effectively eliminating the delay
on laser power-up or interlock activation.
As with other laser safety requirements, the OEM or system integra-
tor is solely responsible for designing the system to incorporate a five-
second delay and any other controls required by relevant laser safety
standards for Class 4 laser devices.
