Figure 23 A Typical Connection to PL96
If the cooler interlock is not used, PL96 pin 1 should be linked to pin 2.
PL96 is a 2 way 5.08mm pitch connector. A suitable mating socket is Phoenix Contact part
number 1777989. It accepts wire sizes from 0.25mm
2
to 2.5mm

or 24AWG to 12AWG, the
strip length is 7mm or 0.25" and the tightening torque is 0.5-0.6Nm.
7.6.9 PL98 – Remote Indicators
The QUBE Fiber Laser provides outputs for indicators, or for use as inputs to a user supplied
control system, on PL98. The outputs are nominally 24V DC with a maximum rated current of
100mA. The 24V DC supply is provided by the laser and is SELV. The connections to PL98
must be appropriately separated from non-SELV circuits.
There are 5 outputs:
Reset
This output is on when the emergency stop safety function has been reset.
It duplicates the blue lit reset button on the front panel.
Emission
This output is on when the system is capable of emitting laser output.
It duplicates the yellow emission indicator on the front panel and will flash for a few seconds
when the laser goes into standby mode and then change to continuously on.
Fault
This output is on when the system is in an alarm or warning state. It duplicates the red fault
indicator on the front panel. It flashes for an alarm and is on continuously for a warning.
