Reference
• To radiate the guide laser with this command, set the guide laser display control method to "communication commands"
by Laser Marker NAVI smart.
• You can start the guide laser radiation only with the internal shutter closed.
• The guide laser stops automatically after about one minute has passed from the startup.
• When on-the-fly marking is set for LP-RC/LP-RF series, the guide laser of the marking image and the masked objects
operates with the on-the-fly behavior.
• For LP-GS052 type, guide laser command (GID) cannot be used.
• Do not execute any other operation including the shutter opening/closing and sending MKM command while the guide
laser is emitted.
• The settings of guide laser scan speed and guide laser Z-movement are common in all files.
• The settings of guide laser scan speed and guide laser Z-movement are saved in the laser marker without overwriting
operation.

Remarks
• "1" to "4" can be used only when
the shutter is closed.
• To set guide laser scan speed or
Z-movement without guide laser
radiation, set the guide laser
display to "0".
When on-the-fly marking is set for
LP-RC/LP-RF series, this setting
is not applied to the guide laser of
the marking image and the masked
objects. To them the on-the-fly
speed is applied.
• Enabled only when the guide
laser display is set to marking
field or work distance.
• Z-movement cannot be specified
with LP-GS051-L, LP-RC and
LP-RF series.
