1.Description
1.1. Product description
Raycus P20QB/P30QB pulsed fiber laser is an ideal high power laser source with high speed
and high efficiency. It is specially designed for industrial laser making system and other
applications.
Compared with traditional lasers, pulsed laser has some unique advantages in increasing the
conversion efficiency of the pump light 10 times higher. Its low power consumption and
automotive design make it appropriate for operating both in and outside the lab. Besides, it is
exquisite and convenient for its independence in placement, free time in using and facility in
connecting to equipment directly.
The device can emit 1060~1085nm wavelength pulsed light under the control of industrial
laser’s standard interface driven by 24VDC power source.

1.3. Environmental requirements and cautions
Pulsed laser should be driven by 24VDC±1V power source.
(1) Caution: Make sure the corresponding wires of the device are properly grounded.
(2) All the maintenance to the device should only be done by Raycus, because there is no
replacement or accessory provided with the device. Please do not try to damage the labels or
open the cover in order to prevent against electric shock, or the warranty will be invalid.
(3) The output head of the product is connected with an optical cable. Please be careful handling
the output head. Avoid dirt and any other contaminations. Please use the specialized lens
paper when cleaning the lens. Please lid the laser with protective cover of the light isolator to
be against dirt only when the laser is not installed in the device or not in working.
(4) If the operating the device fails to follow this instruction, the protective function will be

weakened. Therefore, it should be used under normal conditions.
(5) Do not install the collimating device into the output head when the laser device is in working.
(6) The device has three cooling fans at the rear panel to dissipate heat. In order to guarantee
enough airflow to help giving heat off, there must be a space of at least 10cm’s width for
airflow in front and rear side of the device. As the cooling fans are working at blow condition,
if laser is mounted in a cabinet with fans, the direction should be same as laser’s fans.
(7) Do not look into the output head of the device directly. Please do wear appropriate laser
safety eyewear during the time when operating the device.
(8) Make sure the pulse repetition rate higher than 20 kHz.
(9) For the longest time without pulse is only 100 us. If there is no pulse output, please stop
marking at once, to avoid further damage of the device.
(10) Power source sudden interruption will do great harm to the laser device. Please make sure
the power supply works continuously.

(2) Isolated output isolator (As shown in Fig. 2).
Figure 2. Dimension drawing of output isolator (Unit: mm).
2.2 Method of installation
(1) The laser output fiber is the key but very sensitive component. During the package,
transport and operation, the bending radius of output fiber must not exceed 15 cm, or
the laser may be damaged. The leading and tail parts of the output fiber must not be
excessively bended, in case of damaging. When returning the laser for warranty, it
suggests using the original package. If the original package is not accessible, the laser

device and output isolator must be packed with suitable soft materials in case of
damaging due to vibration during the transportation.
(2) Fix the laser device steady on the holder and ensure good ventilation.
(3) The power connector of this high performance small volume laser device is DB7 dual

wouldn’t operate. Depending on the specific requirements in actual operation, the
control board and laser drive can be powered together or separately.
(5) During the operation, disconnection of any connect wire will lead the disable of laser
emission
(6) Make sure the control connector of external controller is compatible with the laser
device. Fix the control wire steady onto the laser control connector.

3.Control Interface
There are DB9 and DB25 interfaces at the rear of the laser. The DB9 is a RS232 interface
only used for debugging, no needs to connect. And DB25 is the joint interface connecting control
system to the laser system, please make sure the connection is reliable before operation. Feet of
the DB25 are defined as follows in Fig. 5.

(1) The pump current of diode laser and the laser output power are controlled by setting the
value of PIN1-PIN8 (TTL level). PIN1-PIN8 can be set from 0～255，corresponding to the
laser output power from 0～100％( the actual laser power may not be strictly linear with the
setting value). The relationship between PIN value and output power is shown in Table 4:

(2) PIN 17 is the external 5V input, providing power supply for alarm signal: input current＞
20mA.
(3) The external input signals (Pin 1-8, 18-20, 22) are connected to the optical coupler inside the
system. Input voltage 3V-5V are defined as digital High, below 1V are defined as digital
Low.
(4) Alarm setting: Pins 11, 12, 16 and 21 are the alarm and status outputs which driven by +5V
power from Pin 17. Pin 12 is reserved (always be high). These pins indicate the following

(5) PIN 18 is the start signal of the MO. PIN19 is the input for the optical output signal. The
electrical level for both PIN18 and PIN19 are 5V. Before turning on PIN 19, MO signal must
be switched ON, in other word, the signal of PIN 18 must be ahead of PIN 19 at least 5 ms,
and otherwise the laser machine may be damaged.
(6) I/O connection of digital signal: the supply current of input signals are less than 10mA, and
the supply current of output signals are less than 3 mA . The connection circuit of
input/output signals is shown in Figure 6.
Figure 6. Schematic of input and output signals.
(7) The control board and laser driver can be powered separately. When there is failure in 24V
control board power supply, the laser will stop emission after 20 ms. When there is failure in
24V laser driver power supply, the laser will stop emission after 4 ms.

4.Operation Regulations
4.1 Pre-inspection
(8) Make sure the device appearance is in good condition and the output fiber is neither
excessively bended nor broken.
(9) Make sure signal line of laser and marking system are properly connected.
4.2 Operation procedures
1) Starting procedures
Please make sure the control system is on before you turn on the fiber laser. Only after at
least 1 minute since the power turned on, the subsequent operations can be preceded.
2) Frequency set introductions
For this special laser device, the frequency setting range is from 20 kHz to 60 kHz (P20QB),
or from 30 kHz to 60 kHz (P30QB).
3) Laser marking checking
For the device initial testing, first turn the power down to zero without turning on the
marking system after the device is successfully started. Then draw a quadrate, marking
continuously while slowly increasing the power from 0% to 100% at the same time. Meanwhile,
use a ceramic material to observe the laser and the laser should become stronger, otherwise shut
down the device and check. If operating normally, the marking system can be used in common
order afterwards.
4.3 Cautions
1) Marking frequency must be in the range of 20 kHz～60 kHz (P20QB), or 30 kHz～60kHz
(P30QB).
2) It should not modulate the frequency while marking.
3) Stop marking first before shutting down the device, then turn the power down to zero and cut
the power off.
