Introduction
This section is designed to help isolate problems to the module level only. Problems on circuit boards or
the laser tube are outside the scope of this guide because they are not user-serviceable assemblies; do not
attempt to repair them. Contact SYNRAD or a SYNRAD Authorized Distributor for repair/replacement
information. To troubleshoot the OEM v30 laser, it is necessary to understand the sequence of events
that must happen before the laser can turn on and operate. Before you attempt to perform any service, we
advise you to read the entire troubleshooting section and review the operational flowchart on the follow-
ing page.
Caution
possible
equipment
damage
Attempting repair of a SYNRAD Firestar laser without the express
authorization of SYNRAD will void the product warranty. If trouble-
shooting or service assistance is required, please contact SYNRAD
Customer Service.
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. Because
direct or diffuse laser radiation can inflict severe corneal injuries,
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.
