The Interface A (DB-9) Laser Enable input is a direct 5V logic input.
Do not send a voltage signal to the Laser Enable input (Pin 9) until
DC power is applied; otherwise, the control board will be damaged.
Observe all 5V logic specications and precautions when integrating
OEM v30 inputs and outputs into your control system.
Figure below illustrates one method of applying the Laser Enable signal using a customer-
supplied limit switch or relay contact powered by the OEM v30’s DC Out output (+5 V, 250
mA).
