Chapter 7 Troubleshooting
Laser Driver Will Not Enable
If you are using Thorlabs Laser and TEC controllers with your LM14S2:
Possible Solution
Directions
Remote interlock is open
Make sure that either the shorting device is installed in the REMOTE INTRLK
connector on the side of the LM14S2. If you have a remote interlock switch
connected to this REMOTE INTRLK connector, it must be in a closed position.
TEC element is not active
The internal TEC Lockout is preventing the laser diode form operating. Make sure
the TEC control is active.
Laser Wavelength or Power is Unstable Even Though the TEC Controller Shows Stable Temperature
Possible Solution
Directions
LD is not fully seated
Make sure your laser diode is fully inserted into the LM14S2 laser mount and its
body is in full contact with the heat sink base, and the four securing screws are
tightened.
The LDC Series Laser Driver Indicates an “Open Circuit” Alarm When You Try to Enable the Laser
Possible Solution Directions
LD polarity switch may be
incorrect on the driver
In most cases your butterfly laser will operate with an anode grounded polarity.
Therefore, set the LD polarity switch on the back of your LDC series driver to AG.
My Laser Diode Does Not Turn On at All
Possible Solution Directions
The configuration card
may be installed
incorrectly
Make sure you have the correct configuration card installed and that it is seated in
the 24-pin hearder properly. This is easily checked by turning the unit over and
reading the card type in the adapter inspection window (see Figure 1)
