the details on how to connect the interlock.
Interlock Safety Reset
If the enclosure door opens and closes, the laser is shut down by the interlock.
Despite the door being closed again, the laser cannot be started until the key
lock is first cycled to the OFF position and back to the ON position. Only after the
key is cycled, the interlock is reset and emission is permitted.
Laser accessory
management
The External bus port connects optional SuperK accessories. The port provides a
bus control interface, 12V DC power and the interlock signal to optional smart
accessories. When multiple smart accessories are utilized with the laser, the bus
supports daisy chain connectivity. Smart accessories connected to the External
bus are recognized and managed by the CONTROL PC connected to the laser.
Since this bus connection includes the interlock signal, the bus defeater must
always be on the last open External Bus output port, otherwise the laser will not
operate. For information on connecting the bus, see "Connecting accessories
with the external bus".
