4.6 Initial Tests

4.6.1

Movement Test

1. Use the height adjustment knob to confirm
that the laser arm moves smoothly and easily
through its whole range of motion.
2. At the same time, test that there is enough
slack in the USB cable to safely move
through the laser arm's entire range of
motion, adjusting as needed.

4.6.2 Buttons Test

1. Check that the power cable is connected to the power supply.
2. Remove the lens head cover.
3. Turn on the machine by activating its power from top to bottom in order:
a. Turn the emergency stop button to release it and power the mainboard.
b. Turn the GALVO access key to power the galvo head.
c. Press the LASER button to power the fiber laser source.
Activating these out of order may cause electrical hazards as the separate
power supplies are grounded in order. Do not activate them too quickly.
Give each power supply time to come on line, activating its fans. 3 seconds
is sufficient.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, once the laser power supply is on, try
to touch the machine's components with only one hand at a time.
