With a UC-2000 Controller
Before your OEM v30 laser is put into service for the first time, its functionality should be verified. Follow
this procedure to verify the laser system is operating at optimum performance. For this procedure, use
the UC-2000 as a stand-alone controller; do not attempt to control the laser or UC-2000 externally.
Important Note:
After applying 30 VDC, but before operating the laser, you must provide a
Laser Enable input signal to either the Interface A (DB-9) or Interface B (RJ45) connector. See
Interface connections in the Technical Reference chapter for pinouts and signal descriptions.
Starting auxiliary equipment
1
Ensure that all personnel in the area are wearing protective eyewear.
2
Remove the red self-adhesive aperture seal from the laser faceplate.
3
Place a power meter, or appropriate beam block, 61 cm (24 in) from the laser aperture to prevent
the beam from traveling beyond the work area.
4
On water-cooled v30’s, turn on the chiller (set in the range of 18–22 °C) and verify it is delivering
3.8 lpm (1.0 GPM) at less than 414 kPa (60 PSI) of pressure.
5
Set the UC-2000 to MANUAL mode, and then set the PWM Adj Knob to provide zero percent
output (0.0%). The UC-2000’s Lase indicator should be Off.
Important Note: If you have not yet operated your UC-2000 Universal Laser Controller, refer to
the UC-2000 Laser Controller Operator’s Manual for setup and operation instructions before
continuing.
Starting your v30 laser
1
If the laser has a Diode Pointer installed, remove its aperture dust cover.
2
Turn on the +30 VDC power supply. The v30’s PWR LED should illuminate green.
3
Apply a Laser Enable signal to the appropriate interface connector. The yellow RDY lamp turns
on to indicate that lasing is enabled when a PWM Command signal is received.
4
Press the UC-2000’s Lase On/Off button. The Lase indicator on the UC-2000 should illuminate.
5
Use the UC-2000’s PWM Adj Knob to slowly increase power. The v30 LASE LED illuminates red
when PWM Command pulses are long enough to produce laser output. The spot where the beam
hits the beam block should increase in brightness to indicate increased power output.
6
Press the UC-2000’s Lase On/Off button to stop lasing. LASE indicators on the UC-2000 and the
laser should turn off.
If laser fails to lase, refer to Troubleshooting in the Maintenance/Troubleshooting section for
troubleshooting information.
Important Note:
On cold starts, provide five to ten seconds of tickle before sending PWM
Commands to the laser
