4.11 External Interlock Switch
A door interlock switch is required by the accident prevention regulations. The device is
equipped with an interlock connector as standard, which can be replaced by a door interlock
switch. The laser switches off when the door is opened. In addition, the laser cannot be
switched to the READY mode when the door is open. An error message appears on the
control panel. When the door is closed, the error message disappears and the laser can be
switched READY again.
When installing a door interlock switch, note the following:
The switch and wiring must be provided for at least 12 V and 20 mA. The wires should end
with a standard male connector. The choice of polarity is expedient in both variants. The
socket for connecting the door switch can be found underneath the table. Insert the door
switch connector there.
Make sure the socket is stucks firmly to prevent unexpected system interlock problems.
4.12 Safety-Shutter / Aiming Beam
The FOX 514 has an internal safety shutter. This shutter is opened mechanically when
inserting the fiber. The device changes to READY mode only if a fiber is inserted properly
and after pressing the READY button.
The aiming beam is only visible when a fiber is plugged in and the laser is in the READY
mode. This aiming beam is a laser beam with very low power.
4.13 Manual Reset
If an error occurs, the system switches into STANDBY mode. In that case, you should switch
the laser off and on by closing and open the cover stand. The restart should fix the error due
to the automatic recalibration.
If the error still occurs, this can only be fixed by trained personnel. Please contact the service
of A.R.C. Laser GmbH in this case.
