Getting started
Use information in this section to prepare your OEM v30 laser for operation. The order of information
presented in this chapter is the same as the order of tasks that you need to perform. The best way to get
your laser ready for operation is to start at Inventory and work your way through Connecting.
This section contains the following information:
• Introduction
–
introduces the OEM v30 laser, lists important features, and describes
nomenclature.
•
Unpacking
–
provides important information about shipping your OEM v30 laser.
•
Inventory
–
displays and describes all components shipped with your laser.
• Mounting
–
describes how to attach the OEMv30 laser components to a mounting surface.
• Connecting
–
explains how cool the laser and connect both power and control cables.
Introduction
The v30 laser is designed to provide OEMs a compact, cost-effective 30 W laser package. Al-though the
OEM v30 is part of the Firestar family of lasers, its user interface differs significantly from the standard
Firestar interface design. Except for the optoisolated PWM input, PWM Positive, all OEM v30 input and
output signals operate at 5V logic levels to ensure compatibility and ease of installation when retrofitting
the Firestar v30 into existing 30 W laser systems. The OEM v30 control board also differs from other
Firestar v-Series models in that it does not incorporate a built-in tickle generator—users should provide a
5 kHz, 1
µ
s tickle pulse between applied PWM signals.
v30 features include:
• v30 Nomenclature
• Model numbers
•
Important note: OEM v30SxG models 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. See Controlling laser power in the
Technical Reference chapter for tickle signal specifications and recommended duration prior to
lasing.
As with other laser safety requirements, the OEM or system integrator 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. Although the OEM v30 is part of the Firestar family of lasers, its user
interface differs significantly from the standard Firestar interface design. See the Interface connections
section in the Technical Reference chapter for details.
The OEM v30 laser is available in either air-cooled (SAG) fan cooled (SFG), or water-cooled (SWG)
configurations. The Firestar OEM v30 laser is an OEM product intended for incorporation as a
