No photo description available.

⚠️ Pulling out on an e-stop can damage its mechanism.

The machine can appear to look fully powered-up and ready even with the e-stop engaged.

Gently twist the button to the right and it will pop out if it were engaged.

E-stop button
⚠️ On Aurora V2... you must press the on button if an e-stop event occurred, just like during normal power up.
If the red on LED is flashing, press the ON button and the LED should remain on and power will be restored.

There is a DB25 cable that runs from the controller to the laser source.

Remove, inspect, and even check continuity of the cable.

You will need to verify that the low voltage 24 Volt DC power supply dedicated to the laser source is outputting 24 volts.

Power Supply Calibration

Use a voltmeter to measure the output from V+ to V- and Adjust the White Trim Pot to get 24V reading on the voltmeter.

With a small flat head screwdriver, turn the trim pot next to the green LED slowly clockwise to increase voltage, counter-clockwise to decrease.
