Chapter 4 Interface Signal of Controller
4.1 Interface of Main Power Source CN0
This control system employs single 24 power supply. For a certain margin, it is
suggested to select 24V/2A above power. Besides, this system is compatible
with 36V power, that is to say, the 36V power of Motion driver can directly be
connected to this main power port of this system, but generally it is not
suggested to do so.
4.2 Controller-display panel Interface HMI
The connecting wire is parallel line of pin-to-pin.
4.3 Udisk Interface
Udisk is a USB-AM interface; the controller visits the u-disk by this interface.
4.4 PC-USB Interface
PC-USB is a USB-BM interface. The controller may communicate with PC by this port.
4.5 Ethernet Interface
Using this interface, the controller can communicate with PC by 10/100MHZ Ethernet.
Pin to Pin Ethernet parallel line is recommended.

externally connected with the relay, the relay coil is broken over
when it works; no influence is produced when it suspends
working. When its work ends or is stopped manually, the relay
coil will be cut off.
5
Wind
General output for blower control. When the blower control is
enabled, this port will output the control signal of the blower,
otherwise it will output other special control signals. When the
blower is connected and its control enabled, the blower switch
can be set separately on each layer. If the relay is connected
externally, the relay coil will be broken over when the blower is
on; the relay coil will be cut off when the blower is off.

24V Power positive output (If the interface of main power source
is powered with 24V power supply, this pin should be 24V; if it is

disconnected or the high-level signal can be inputted to this
port; when the stepped-down pedal is held for not less than
100 ms, if the machine lies idle, it can be started for work; if
the machine is in the working state, the work will be
suspended; of the machine is in the suspension, the work will

be restarted, that is to say, the function of the pedal switch is
the same as that of the “Start/Pause” key. If the interval time
to the first stepping-down of the pedal should be less than
100ms when the pedal is stepped down once again, the
second stepping-down of the pedal will be considered invalid
by the controller.

Input from protective port. If the machine needs to be
protected in the special state (such as door open protection),
the protective signal can be inputted from this pin. This pin
can be enabled and prohibited. This signal is not inquired by
the controller if this pin is prohibited; if this pin is enabled,
when the input is high-leveled or this input port is suspended,
the machine will be protected, the work suspended and the
laser closed.

The limit polarity is optional, that is to say, when the motion axis reaches the limit position, it will
trigger a low-level signal so as to make the corresponding LED (under the cover) light; when the
motion axis leaves the limit position, it will trigger a high-level signal or disconnect the limit signal
so as to make the limit indicator go out, but when it leaves the limit, the corresponding indicator
will light and the limit polarity become positive. The mistaken setting of limit polarity will result
that the limit can’t be detected when the system is reset so as to lead to the collision of axis.

The polarity of directional signal for driver pulse signal can be set. Where a certain axis is reset, it
will move to the opposite direction of machine origin, which means the polarity of directional
signal for this axis is not correct. In such a case, the connection between this axis and the motor
driver can be broken first (otherwise the controller cannot be detected to the limit so as to lead to
the collision of this axis), and then such a polarity can be corrected after this axis is reset
completely. Upon the correction, the reset key can be pressed against to reset the controller.
And, the pulse signal can be falling edge valid or rising edge valid. The default setting is falling
edge valid.
The Pulse signal and the directional signal are all OC outputs. The Controller
must be common anode with the motor driver
4.10 Laser Power Control Interface CN5/CN6

will forcibly close the laser to suspend the work in progress and
the system will warn. If the water protector 1 is not enabled, the
controller will not detect the input port of water protector 1 and so
the water protector 1 can be unconnected.
