Safety During Installation And Operation

Please read these operating instruction completely before you proceed with installing and
operating this product. If there are any questions regarding the contents of this manual, please
contact BJJCZ.
1. Steps For Safe Operation
 Please comply with all safety statements(include but not only about laser
source,scanner and the items in this file)
 Always turn on the power of this product and the power supply for the scan
head first before turning on the laser. Otherwise there is the danger of
uncontrolled deflection of the laser beam.
We recommend the use of a shutter to prevent uncontrolled emission of laser
radiation.

2. The customer is responsible for below security section

 PCIE-FIBER is designed to control a laser marking system.So all the

security knowledge about laser should be know by customers.Customer
must comply with all the laser security knowledge and responsible for
the laser machine they are using.
 Safety regulation may differ from country to country. It is the
responsibility of the customer to comply with all local regulations.
 Carefully check your application program before running it.
Programming errors can cause a break down of the system. In this case
neither the laser nor the scan head can be controlled.
 Protect the board from humidity, dust, corrosive vapors and mechanical
stress.
 For storage and operation, avoid electromagnetic fields and static
electricity. These can damage the electronics on the product. For storage,
always use the antistatic bag.
 The allowed operating temperature range is 25℃±10℃, The storage
temperature should be between –20℃ and +60℃.

FLY ENCODER： on-the-fly marking interface to encoder, DB9

1.2 Main features

 Standard DB25 connector, can be wire to IPG laser directly.

 Galvo control signal is digital, which can be connect to most scanhead directly.
 on-the-fly marking feature. A encoder can be used to surveillance the pipeline speed real-
timely.
 Multiple boards on 1 computer: One computer can control up to 8 control board to mark
different pattern simultaneously
 Extension axis(step motor or sever motor): two set of direction/pulse signal can be used to
control 2 step(server) motors.
 10 general input signals(TTL campatible): In0-In9。
 2 general output signals(TTL campatible): Out4-OUT5。
 Remark function: this function is used to remark what ever is in the memory of the board,
especially convenient for high speed marking of a same pattern.
 PCIE control board connect with the PC via PCIE connector.

2. Electrical connections
2.1 Interface specification

2.1.1CON1 ：DB15 scanhead control

The signals that control scanhead are digital, therefore can be connected to the digital
scanhead directly. Because the protocols that every manufacturer used are not always the same,
you need to conform which protocol is used. We also provide a D/A converter in the package. The
digital signal converted by which can be connected to a analog scanhead.

Picture 2-7 Dial Switch appearance

Multiple boards on 1 computer: One computer can control up to 8 control board to mark
different pattern simultaneously .
Index numbers 0~7 are used to differentiate various cards when muti-cards are used at same
time. Dial Switch respectively correspond to binary b2 b1 b0. Dial 2,3,4 switch to left means
7, and to right means 0.

2.3 I/O that can be connect to GND

2.3.1 These kind of I/O can connect to GND through a switch. In4-5,in8, START are of
these kind.
The following schematics are typical wiring for these kind of signal.
