Chapter 1: Overview
LaserCuttist introduction
LaserCuttist Laser cutting system is designed exactly for metal cutting. This system is based on the
RDS3040G motion controller. This controller is based on DSP+FPGA and has high performance in motion
control and laser control.
This laser cutting system can interfaces with YAG tube and Fiber tube. And still has the laser spray nozzle
following system interface. Servo motor and step motor can connect to RDS3040G motion controller. RDS3040G
has the special IO for Limit switch and Home switch .
The following is the construction of the laser cutting for metal. Picture 1-2 shows the electrical connections
of the laser metal cutting system in detail.

2.3 System installation and operation
Please follow the steps to set up your laser cutting system。
step1：Insert the RDS3040G motion controller into PCI slot
1. Switch off the AC power。
2. ware the ESD gloves
3. Open the computer box and install the RDS3040G controller into the PCI slot。
4. Switch on PC power, If the led flash on the RDS3040G, then the RDS3040G work well.
5. Shut off windows, and Switch off the PC power.
6. Connect other device to RDS3040G terminal board, Such as laser tube, motors etc.
Step 2：Connect the RDS3040G controller with the terminal board
Connect the RDS3040G controller to terminal board with the 68 pin SCSI wire.
The power supply of the terminal board is 24V. It should have a 3A driving ability. If 24V
power is switched on, Then the led in the terminal board will on. If there is one or all of the led is
not on, there are fault in the terminal board. Please contact the RuiDa technology.
Step 3：Install the PCI driver in windows XP
The PCI driver is just for window XP, If the OS is not windows XP ,please contact RuiDa
technology.
1．When windows started，System will check the PCI device automatically and tell user to
install PCI driver.
2．Select “install from a list or the specific location”， click“NEXT”。
3．In this page ，select“search the best driver in the location”， and select“search include the
location”， click“browse”.
4．Insert the CD in the cd-rom。
5．click“Browse”and select the directory“CDROM：\driver\win xp”
6．“Add Hardware Wizard”,click“NEXT”。
7．In the device manager，there is a new device named“RDDriver”。 click“+”， “RuiDaTech
RD400SCAN Ver 1.0”is displayed.
Step 4：RDS3040G-PCI test
Open the Lasercutist software , If the software is opened successfully. It shows the PCI driver
is installed correctly. If there are fault during opening the laserCutist software, The PCI driver is
installed unsuccessfully.

Step 5：connect X、Y axis motor
There are 4 channels for motor control. This interface is DB25. The signals in the interface include
pulse+dir, alarm ,servo on and encoder signals. Figure 3 is the definition of the signals.
The step or servo motor signals are in Differential style. Shown in the picture 2-3. Alarm
signal is photoelectric isolation. The connection between RDS3040G and motors is described in
detail in appendix 1.

Step 6：Connect Laser following head, air valve and laser tube
Laser following head is controlled with IOs on the RDS3040G terminal board. There are usually
relays between the IO and the devices. The RDS3040G control the relays and the relays control the
following head rising and following.
On the terminal board, the IO(CN10—OUT25) is assigned to the “rise” control output. The
IO(CN10—OUT24) is assigned to “follow” control output.
Out24, out25 has almost 300mA current ability and can drive the relays directly.The electrical
connection is shown as picture 2-6.

Out27 is assigned to laser on or off. This output is OC output; It still can directly drive the relays.
Then the relays control the laser tube laser on or off. This is shown in picture 2-7.
OUT26，OUT22，OUT23 are assigned to air valve. These IOs can directly drive relays. The
relays then control the Electromagnetic valve.

Step 7：connect the dedicated IO for X、Y axis motors
The signal for the motor control include：LIMIT input、HOME input。If there servo motors, There are still include
SERVO ON and ALARM input.
The HOME and LIMIT ,SERVO ON ,ALARM signals are all Photoelectric isolated. Just is shown as
