5. Operating Instructions

Once properly installed, the Cloudray 100 Watt Laser Power Supply offers intuitive control for your laser operations.

Basic Operation:

1. Power On: Ensure all connections are secure and the laser tube is properly cooled. Turn on the main power to the power supply.
2. TTL Control: Use TTL-level signals from your laser controller to initiate and stop laser firing. The power supply supports both active-high and active-low devices.
3. Current Adjustment: If your model includes an external ammeter with an LCD screen, use the trimmer potentiometer to precisely adjust the output current as needed for your application.
4. Test Function: Press the 'TEST' button on the power supply to manually check the laser output. This is useful for quick verification of laser functionality.

Monitoring Status:

The external ammeter's LCD screen provides real-time feedback:

• Current Output: Displays the actual processing current in mA.
• Water Protection: Indicates if the water protection system is active (ON/OFF).
• Laser Signal: Shows the status of the laser signal (ON/OFF).

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Cloudray Laser Power Supply.

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the exterior of the power supply and ensure ventilation grilles are free from dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners.
• Fan Check: Ensure the cooling fan operates freely and is not obstructed. A well-functioning fan is critical for heat dissipation.
• Connection Integrity: Regularly inspect all electrical connections for tightness and signs of wear or corrosion. Loose connections can lead to arcing and damage.
• Environmental Conditions: Maintain the operating environment within specified temperature and humidity ranges to prevent premature component failure.
