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.
