running:
 Injurry from visibble or invisible high-powerr laser
 Injurry from runniing mechaniccal device
Laser from exposing laserr head is invissible, and thee high-power invisible laseer will serioussly injure skin and eyes.
If you suddeenly open the cover when the CTP is eexposing and the mechaniical part is stitill running, please
p operatee
according to the followingg steps:
1) Turrn off the pow

Do not try to stop or touch the mechanical components inside CTP.
△
! Caution! Please pay more attention to the safety cautions about the cover of CTP in this manual; do not open
the cover when CTP is running, otherwise, serious bodily injury or damage to CTP may be caused.
△
! Danger! Never try to operate CTP without closing all the covers, and never open the covers when the CTP is
running, because high-power invisible laser might cause injury and error of the machine and circuit systems.
3.4 Emergency stop button
Emergency stop button can stop the laser and mechanical movement.
Fig 1 Use emergency stop button to stop the laser and mechanical movement
Emergency stop button will not power off the CTP. Therefore, you can check the error on Tiffdownload to obtain
more about how to solve problems.
If the emergency stop button has been pressed down, you must reset it to restore the CTP to normal operation.
Clockwise rotate the button 90 degrees to reset it, and then operate the device according to the instructions from
Tiffdownload.
The position of the emergency stop button is as follows:
 Locate at the outside of the output device and separately at the upside of the left and right front cover
Fig 2 The position of external emergency stop button on manual loading CTP

△
! Warning: Please suppose that there is still laser radiation and damage from machinery after you pressing down
the emergency stop button for a while. Meanwhile, please remember that the power is still on. It may cost at most 5
seconds to stop the moving component when pressing down the button. Exposing to visible or invisible high-energy
laser radiation may cause skin burn and permanent vision recession or loss. Moreover, if you cannot avoid the
damage from moving component, it may cause death or serious injury.
△
! Warning: Please notice that there will be defect to cause the mechanical movement when pressing down the
emergency stop button. As long as this happened, switch off the CTP and don’t use it until maintenance. If you

 The electric construction should be implemented by qualified company
 Please get ready three-phase-four-wire circuit system, 15KW power supply capacity
 Front circuit of watt-hour meter uses 16mm2 cable
 The power supply of Aurora 1200 series device supplies electricity from side power switch independently,
so do not connect other products on the side power switch
 In the area where the voltage is 200~240V, the power supply condition is -10%-+6%, if the voltage
variation is over the value, please use voltage stabilizer

It is recommended to use the oil free and water free compressor whose theory flow is not less than 200 L/min, gas
storage capacity is bigger than 50L and the input power is not less than 1200W in Aurora 1200 series CTP.
