This control system employs single 24 power supply. For a certain margin, it is
suggested to select 24V/2A power. Besides, this system is compatible with 36V
power, that is to say, the 36V power of Motion driver can directly be connected to

All outputs are isolated through the optocoupler, and 500mA current for each,
OC gate output, each can directly drive the 6V/24V relay.
Prompt
The spacing polarity is optional, that is to say, when the motion axle reaches the spacing
position, it will trigger a low-level signal so as to make the corresponding LED (under the
cover) light; when the motion axle leaves the spacing position, it will trigger a high-level
signal or disconnect the spacing signal so as to make the spacing indicator go out, but
when it leaves the spacing, the corresponding indicator will light and the spacing polarity
become positive. The mistaken setting of spacing polarity will result that the spacing can’t
be detected when the system is reset so as to lead to the collision of axles.
The polarity of directional signal for driver pulse signal can be set. Where a certain axle is
reset, it will move to the opposite direction of machine origin, which means the polarity of
directional signal for this axle is not correct. In such a case, the connection between this
axle and the motor driver can be broken first (otherwise the mainboard can not be
detected to the spacing so as to lead to the collision of this axle), and then such a polarity
can be corrected after this axle is reset completely. Upon the correction, the reset key can
be pressed against to reset the mainboard.
This control system has two independent and adjustable digital/analog laser power control
interfaces. Signals of the two interfaces are similar and the first digital interface (CN6) is
hereby exampled (6Pin, 3.81mm space):

Overview
6.1 Overview
The input signal end of step-servo motor driver employs the light-coupled isolation
technology. For the step-by-step impulse signal, some isolate the side OC diode from
cutoff to conduction (e.g. the valid falling edge of pulse signal inputted from the diode
minus end) and some do so from conduction to cutoff (e.g. the valid rising edge of pulse
signal inputted from the diode minus end). When it is indicated whether the pulse signal of
motor driver is the valid rising edge or the valid falling edge, it will be subject to the pulse
signal inputted from the minus end of side OC diode.
Some input signals of motor driver are independent and some are internally of common
anode, so some have 4 external leading-out wires and some 3 wires (only the pulse and
directional signals are counted) as shown in Figure 10 and 11. Meanwhile, the input signal
can generally be compatible with different voltage classes. If it is higher than the 5V signal,
it is necessary to connect the current-limiting resistance externally. The interface signals
of motor driver for RD mainboard are the 5V signals that should directly be abutted with
the corresponding terminals to the driver.
The interface pulse end of each motor driver for RD mainboard can provide such two
signals as the rising-edge walk and falling-edge travel. The improper use of the pulse-end
signal may give rise to the lost steps, even back-run and finally dislocation of processed
figure when the motor steers. In addition, this mainboard provide two directional signals
not restrict in requirements. Either signal can be connected with the directional signal end
of driver in the common-anode mode. Both directional signal ends can also be connected
with the driver in the differential mode. In such a case, plus and minus can be exchanged
at random. The result of exchange is that the rotating direction of motor is different from
the actually desired direction. At this time the polarity of directional signal for the motor can
be modified on the PC software. In this section is exampled the driver of step-servo motor
popular in the market. In addition to that the correct wiring scheme of this mainboard and
motor driver is provided, it is recommended to use the common-anode connection in all
wiring schemes.

Input Signal of Driver Input Signal of Driver
The driver of the step-servo motor produced by Leadshine Technology Co., Ltd. is on the
valid rising edge. Some of its products can support the mode of valid rising/falling edge.
When these products are delivered out of the factory, they are all set at the valid rising
edge; if the user changes the ex-factory setting into the valid pulse falling edge, Section
6.3 can be referred to for the wiring method. For the typical models such as M860 and
3MD560, Figure 6.2-1 and 6.2-2 show the wiring scheme of RD mainboard and Leadshine
driver.
Figure: 6.2-1 Four Inputs, Valid Rising Edge and Common Anode
Connection
The driver pulse ends of drivers for step-servo motors presently produced by most of
manufacturers are of valid falling edge. These companies include BERGER LAHR, Beijing
HollySyn Motor Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen YAKO Automation Technology Co., Ltd.,
Shenzhen Baishan Mechatronics Co., Ltd., Beijing Jektechnology Co., Ltd. and the like.
The input signals for some motor drivers are independent and some of common anode.

Manufacturer parameters
User parameters
Laser PWM Frequence is used to set the pulse frequency of control signal used by this
laser, in general, glass tube is about 20KHZ, RF laser is about 5KHZ ; the
maximum/minimum power (%) is used to set the limit power of this laser, that is to say, during
the operation, the maximum power set by the user can’t be higher than that set here and the
minimum power set by the user can’t be less than that set here, either. When a laser’s power
is attenuated, then the laser attenuation quotiety may be set.
If it is only provided with the single laser, it can show the one-path
parameter.

machine is provided with the parameter for the single laser in the
manufacturer parameters, the display entry of enabling parameter will
change accordingly.
The cutting and scanning parameters can’t exceed the limited ones in
Prompt
the axle parameters. If so, the setting will become ineffective and the
system will automatically cover the parameters with the axle parameters.
If the frame crosses the border, the interface will prompt it. If the Enter
Prompt key is pressed at this time, the system will cut the border at the
maximum/minimum coordinates first, and then border the figure. This
bordering can be given up.
Before-feeding Time Lag: settable at 0~300s. The lagged time can facilitate
user’s feeding and picking on the feeding device.
After-feeding Time Lag: settable at 0~9.9s. It can facilitate the feeding
device’s delaying in jarring after moving to the correct position and waiting for the 2nd
work after the feeding axle stands still completely.
Focus Setting: it means the distance from the focal point of laser head lens to
Z-axle origin. When there is no automatic focusing function, this parameter becomes
invalid.
