4 LASER START/STOP Button with EMISSION INDICATOR. Pressing this button when the
READY lamp is on and the resonator shutters are open; will produce laser emission internal to the
Laser. If the optical fibers are connected and the branch shutters are open, laser emission will be
produced at the optical fiber output. If the Laser is programmed for continuous mode operation,
pressing this button once will start a continuous output of programmed laser pulses. Pressing it
again will stop laser emission (will not occur if the Laser is set for EXT. I/O control). Emission
indicator illuminates when the unit is able and ready to fire the laser.
