Application Interfaces

Light Stack Interface

The LS8000-3 User Scaleable Pulse Outputs and Index Pulse output can be
reconfigured and connected to a light stack in order to indicate the current
state of the laser in order to warn people in the area of laser radiation. The
pulse outputs can be reconfigured into a light stack interface by setting the
following settings:

Setting

Value

Command

Index Pulse Output Function

Light Stack (Green)

#9<CR>

User Scaleable Pulse Output
Configuration

Light Stack (Yellow/Red)

$L9<CR>

The outputs can then be connected to solid state relays in order to drive a light
stack as shown below. This will provide a contact closure for each lamp. The
maximum current that can be driven by this interface will depend on the
selected relay.
