Pin 2:

Voltage levels below ~2V are interpreted as logic 0 or “light off”; voltage levels above ~2V are interpreted as logic 1 or “light on”. Please note that the switching threshold can vary slightly.

Pin 4: /

n/a

Modulation

digital TTL up to 100kHz (use black cable of the laser)

General rule

Note that there is a linear characteristic between the two voltages! Both control inputs are tolerant to DC voltages up to 25V, therefore, by applying 24V to the laser, it can easily be switched 
on to 100% by bridging pins 1, 2 and 4. There is no need for an extra supply of 1V. You cannot destroy the laser in a 24 Volt system by wrong connections of input pins.
* Attention: the laser type ZM12-DM5 with 3-wires cable can only be supplied with 4-6VDC!

1.  Warning label is enclosed and should be well visible.

Please pay attention to the laser classes!

 (EN 60825-1: 2007) Laser class 3R, 3B and 4 are 

intended for integration into complex systems and are not approved for stand-alone operation. 
They require a laser protection of

fi

 cer who will decide on the necessary legal measures of training, 

hazard control and use.

2. a) By rotating the focus ring, the laser projection can be focused (from 100mm up to 

).

b) ZM12T:
    By using external hexagon key tool, the laser projection can be focused (from 100mm up to 

).

3.  M12 thread with two nuts for a simple installation in a mounting or a mounting angle.
4.  • LED light = Laser on

• No LED light = Laser off / no power

5.  M12 connector to provide 

fi

 xed and secure connection to power supply,

cable or customized solution.
Version with 

fl

 ying leads connection is also available (ZM12DM5).

6.  Fit industrial plug to laser, screw softly by hand (without tool).

About 2mm of the screw thread must be visible, do not 

fi

 x it any further!

Troubleshooting:

• No laser light. Is the plug and/or power supply connected, supply voltage available?
• No laser light. Is the cable damaged / broken or is the power supply/power socket defective?
• No laser light. Are the pins connected correctly?
• Diffuse projection: (If focusable) re-adjust focus ring.
• Diffuse projection: If the optic appears “dirty” - carefully clean with a cotton bud and spirit.

If the above troubleshoots do not solve your problems, it is possible that there is a fault with the electro-

nics or laser diode. If the laser diode is faulty, as per split or weak beam, please return the laser to our 

headquarters.

Installation into a mounting
– On the side example with a H6-M12
(alternative angle mounting)

1.  Spin nut 1 on to the M12 laser 

thread.

2.  Screw the laser into the mounting 

until you reach nut 1 (alternative: put 
into mounting angle).

3.  Spin nut 2 from behind and 

fi

 x softly 

both nuts with a M12 device.

Installation into a mounting with Ø 20mm (with adapter AP-M12), as example H2-20

Please do not 

fi

 x the mounting on to the front of the laser body as pressure can cause damage to the 

optics. Please 

fi

 x the mounting behind the focus ring adjustment.
