MOTOR PART
LASER/CNC PART
LASER-3PIN-TTL
Pluggable drive interface.
（ Such as A4988, TMC2209, etc. ）
DIP switch (adjusting drive microstepping)
External drive interface (Expand high current drive)
EN-STEP(PUL)-DIR=GND
V:LASER power supply (Vlaser=Vin, 12-24V)
G:GND
S:TTL ( Default 1KHZ, Range 1-10KHZ, 0-5V)

5
LASER-2PIN/CNC
LCD PART
G:GND
S:PWM (PWM signal, 0-12V OR 0-24V)
NOTE: If the laser/cnc directly loaded by the
motherboard, it is recommended that the current
should not exceed 2A
If more power is required, it is recommended to
supply additional power to the load

Note:
1.During the connection process, you need to pay attention to the spindle ， laser, 12/24v
and other interfaces, all of which have a distinction between "+" and "-", so you must pay
attention to the wiring process to prevent the positive and negative connections from
being reversed, resulting in damage to the motherboard.
2.The motherboard comes with firmware by default, Generally does not need to be
updated. If there is no display after connecting the TS35-R screen, or if the screen is blank,
it means that the motherboard firmware has been externally erased. You can refer to the
second part of firmware update and update the firmware again. Or you can consult our
amazon customer service or get technical support by email.
3.Any wiring or adjustment operation, please do it when the power is off.

https://github.com/makerbase-mks/MKS-DLC32/tree/main/firmware
Download firmware. Download according to the current motherboard situation and
machine situation.
Screen Type (TS35/TS24)
Function type (laser/CNC)
Machine mechanism distinction (normal/coroxy),
Motherboard hardware version (1.0/2.0).
Please select the corresponding bin file to download according to your own machine
conditions.
2.Software installation
Download and Installation of MKS LASERTOOL

If the DLC32 is connected to the PC for the first time, the USB driver file CH340 needs to be
installed to be recognized by the PC.

9
The motherboard needs to be connected to 12-24v for power supply when connecting USB
to PC. If the 12-24v power supply is not connected, the motherboard will not recognize it.
As shown in the figure below, after the connection, the com is correctly identified.
3.Firmware Update Process
Select MKS DLC32 download tool
