This post pertains to the fiber-coupled diode laser mounted in rack 1Y1.
To turn the laser on, first turn the power supply's key (red) to the clockwise. Then make sure that the laser is in "current" mode by checking that the LED next to "I" in the "Laser Mode" box in lit up. If the light is not on, press the button to the right of the "I" light until it is. Now press the output button (green). This is like removing the safety for the laser. Then turn the dial (blue) until you have your desired current. Presently, the current limit is set to around 92 mA.
To turn the laser off, dial the current back down to 0mA and turn the key (red) counterclockwise. |
