Start / Pause 

Pressing this key starts the selected job, pauses a 

job that is already running, or resumes a job that 

has been paused. Use the joystick to scroll 

through the jobs on the control panel display to 

choose the job you want to start. Once your job 

has been selected, press the START/PAUSE key 

to start the job. 

 

After your job has started you can press this key 

to pause the movement of the laser beam as 

well as the firing of the laser beam. Please be 

aware there is a slight delay between when the 

Pause button has been pressed and when the 

job will stop. Once the job is paused you can 

open the door to examine the mark on your 

material. By closing the door and pressing this 

key again the marking will commence where it 

left off. If the item being marked is not moved 

the marking registration will not be affected. 

 

NOTE: 

Opening the door on the laser system 

during operation will immediately stop the laser 

from firing. Always Pause your job before 

opening the doors. 

 

 

Reset 

Pressing the RESET key will stop the job and 

move the laser back to its Home Position. Press 

the reset key after you have paused a job that 

you are currently running. The galvo will 

reposition itself to the start position of the job. 

 

RESET does not erase the job from the laser 

system’s memory; rather it will stop the 

engraving job in process and the galvo will 

reposition itself to the home position.
