Grounding Consideration
The laser outputs of the module are isolated from chassis ground allowing either
output terminal to be grounded at the user's option.

Laser Module Operation
4.5.1
Quick Start
After the power-on sequence is complete, the 6000 goes to the Master display. To
set up a laser module, press the MENU button, then the Modules soft key, then
select the laser driver, and finally, the Setup soft key. At this point, the display
shows all laser parameters. Using the cursor keys and knob, select the desired
functions and set the parameter values. When finished, return to laser display with
(previous) soft key.
Enter the desired set point value using the cursor keys or the knob. Press the LDD
ON key to operate the laser. The LED illuminates to indicate laser operation. To
turn the laser off, press the LDD ON key. For Model 6000M or 6000MF controllers,
use the OSC ON or AMP ON key to control the oscillator or amplifier outputs,
respectively.
4.5.2
Laser Main Screen
The laser main screen in shown in Figure 26 and described in detail below. Certain
features are not available on some modules.
Io=, Im= or Po= - When these fields are editable, such as the Io= field in the figure
above, they indicate the corresponding set point. Non-editable fields, such as the Im=
and Vf= fields above, indicate measured values, such as laser current or voltage,
photodiode current, or photodiode power.
SETUP - Pushing the adjacent soft key activates the setup screen.
The bottom line on the display has 6 "LED" elements, each indicating a particular
state of the laser. They are defined as:
